Thank you.
I’m sorry to hear that you’re not finding permanent improvement with your neuropathy at this time. I was fortunate that the Gabapentin helped with no negative side effects. I gradually got off of it as my symptoms subsided. I did a 20 minute yoga nidra meditation every day which I think just helped to calm me mentally and physically. For those 20 minutes a day, it felt like I didn’t have neuropathy because I was so focused on the meditation that I forgot about the discomfort. My stated intention during the practice was, “I am healing”. I had to believe that I would completely heal one day. I also exercise walked on the days that my feet allowed. My neurologist told me from the beginning that walking does help, if you’re able. I think it helped that I was otherwise healthy and that apparently, my nerves were in good shape prior to the sudden onset of neuropathy. It’s difficult to stay positive in the midst of the pain and discomfort, but for me, it really was vital. I hope this helps and I wish you all the best.

Thank you. I believe trying to maintain a positive outlook is very beneficial and I found walking is too.
The yoga nidra meditation sounds like a good thing for me to try. Would you mind sharing a link to the one you do? I wish you continued good health.
