Possible scam

Posted by mcd123 @mcd123, Oct 18, 2022

Anyone ever heard of nerve control 911? Looks like one of many scams to me.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Neuropathy Support Group.

@mcd123 I have not, but it appears to be advertised as a "natural" supplement. Personally, I would not waste my money and recommend consulting your neurologist or local pharmacist. Do not be fooled by the tag line of "911". That to me is taking advantage of people that are desperate for help and will spend money to try and achieve "nerve control". Reading up on dietary changes to reduce inflammatory food intake, finding an exercise routine of stretching, strengthening or cardio that works for you, and focusing on tools like distraction, stress-management, breathing and meditation, are all good natural aids.

I concur with Rachel. What real medicines have to have 911 in the name? Will that make a Dr more likely to prescribe it, or Pharmacist more likely to recommend it? For over the counter, it is to make it stand out from other similar (or even better) OTC medicines.

I agree with you. It's a scam! I'm almost done with the 4 bottles I bought- I have yet to experience any meaningful relief to my neuropathic pain! I should have suspected so, when it's ingredients didn't include R-Alpha Lipoic Acid, a proven relief for nerve when taken in a dose high enough, even when taken alone. Try taking LDN- low dose Naltrexone, say 4.5 mg.

What is considered to be a high enough dosage of R-Alpha Lipoic Acid?

Thanks!

" Buyer beware" should be kept in mind nowadays by every online purchaser.
Too many scammers waiting to strike!

I agree. Every morning I lift 4 lb bar bells, do stretching, use an elastic rope type thing for stretching and building arm muscle and do one tai chi exercise. We, as we reach the Winters of our lives have to keep moving. Also, even if it is 6 or 10 minutes, a walk is good for the legs and the soul to be outside to see and marvel at Mother Nature.

If you are a very early riser, go outside and listen to the birds awaken. It makes my day.

Also, reading every afternoon on my Kindle keeps me sane.

Hi there @olderdiva12345, It's a pleasure to meet you here, answering one of my older posts. Welcome to Connect! I see you've been actively contributing in the short amount of time since you've joined. Wow, you have a wonderful mindset and positive energy which is inspiring. I admire your physical fitness regiment, and agree about nature, it is a wonderful distraction for calmness, meditation and its healing powers. Thanks for sharing what works for you and offering perspective. Sometimes the best kind of supplements, or meds, are not labled "911", or come in pill form at all. Keep up the good work!

I don’t know if this place is
to ask this question. I have PN in the balls of my feet and toes. I have seen on the internet a foot messager called Nooro NMES foot messager. Has anyone heard of this or used one and is it worth the money?
