Welcome @eep, I'm sorry to hear you are struggling with your neuropathy symptoms. I know it must be extremely difficult to deal with. I wonder if you might find some treatment ideas that you haven't seen before on the Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy's website here:

Have you looked into any exercises or therapy to help with your balance?

I started out doing a few things for balance. My body so messed up it's difficult to exercise. I have both knee replaced, I have a bad back, failed surgery, I have both shoulders reverse replacements, my right one done 4 times. I have a plate and some pins in my left wrist, and I have my right femur broken in two places in the last year. Exercise??? Not an easy thing to do when you can't stand and balance. I've tried some chair yoga, that wasn't easy either. I also have fibromyalgia my body hurts everywhere. I'm lucky I'm still moving. And of course exercise isn't my favorite thing to do. If I thought it was worth while, I would have kept it up. I get shooting pains all over like electric shocks. I have a particularly bad one where they took bone marrow out of butt. Sometimes, I'm sitting and all of a sudden I have to scream in pain, because the shocks hurt so bad. i get a lot of strange looks from people when that happens. Right now I think it's affecting my bowl and bladder. Having problems going to the bathroom. What's next? I can't wait till God says come with me.
