Looking to connect with people who have non-diabetic neuropathy

I’m asking for information on the highly recommended R-alpha lipoic acid. My primary said YES immediately about my taking it. My question is what is the difference between R-alph and just alpha lipoic acid. I can Google it, but I thought someone might have knowledge and experience.
I’m aware Vitamin E with a dl is synthetic and I wouldn’t take it. Is this similar? Thanks!

I've been taking ALA for about 5 years. This was a suggestion by several neuro docs. About 6 days ago, I switched over to the R-ALA. I have no pain, only numbness and poor balance. I am taking 1200 mg. daily. I understand it can take about 3 weeks for any possible improvement. Fingers crossed. Ed
