Hi Amanda, I just started a research, anything more natural than conventional drugs, as these can have devastating side effects

Hi @sharka, I would like to add my welcome along with @amandajro and other members. Research is a key with any neuropathy treatment. My own personal opinion is that while a lot of people talk about stem cell therapy for neuropathy, I have yet to hear of a legimate real life case where it has worked. Since you just started your research you might want to start here with a post earlier in this discussion by @colleenyoung here - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/205641/

I posted this earlier in the discussion also and thought I would repeat it here as I don't believe much has changed as far as stem cell therapy to treat neuropathy -- We had a researcher speak at a meeting of the Minnesota Neuropathy Association on stem cell therapy research. I attached the notes I took at the meeting. The last section of the notes details why the science is not there yet. I believe it's a big hope for all of us but right now there are a lot of people making money off of us folks with neuropathy making dubious claims that it works…
