Anyone here dealing with peripheral neuropathy?

Hello, I recently added Magnesium to my supplements and felt an immediate positive response to my PN. The 24/7 aching of my feet (like bad toothaches) has subsided. I'm now able to sleep and don't have to have my feet outside of the sheets at night. For women the recommended dose is about 300mg /day and form men it's 400. Just want to shout it from the rooftops in case it can help anyone else have just a small bit of relief.

Hello @loraf, Welcome to Connect. It's good to hear a Magnesium supplement has provide a positive impact on your PN. Just in case you were not aware, there are other supplements that help with neuropathy symptoms. See pages 5 and 6 of the following document on the Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy site -- Complementary and Alternative Treatments – https://www.foundationforpn.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Complementary-and-Alternative-Treatments-Revised-2020-final.-1.pdf

Do you mind sharing a little more about your neuropathy diagnosis and how long you have had it?
