@tom01255 I take most of the supplements listed on page 5 & 6 of this document from the Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy -- https://www.foundationforpn.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Complementary-and-Alternative-Treatments-Revised-2020-final.-1.pdf

I don't think supplements alone are the answer and I've had to make a lot of lifestyle changes to go along with the supplements. I do feel like it's helped slow or possibly stopped the progression of my small fiber PN. I posted my story in another discussion here - Member Neuropathy Journey Stories: What's Yours?: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/member-neuoropathy-journey-stories-whats-yours/

My neuropathy was caused by a (first small, then large) disc herniation. The small “bubble” out, which I ignored, caused numbness between two toes on one foot for several years- then it “blew”, causing very advanced symptoms. The MRI also showed spinal stenosis, which is very well-known to cause leg weakness. I sought care at a major medical center/teaching hospital. You are on the right track. If they refuse you, call the next one. Good luck, my daily neuropathy prayer is “Help me to acknowledge, accept, and choose to work with my disability.” It’s hard, but like Jake says, “It is what it is”.

Have you spoken with your physician about TENS? I've read that it has helped some users and the home units today are inexpensive. Best,
