I can understand being discouraged, especially when there really is no cure for neuropathy, only treatments for the symptoms. When I was diagnosed with idiopathic small fiber peripheral neuropathy after it had progressed for 20+ years and I finally decided I needed to know what the diagnosis is, my Mayo neurologist told me there is nothing that will help with the numbness and tingling which are the only symptoms I had. He just said to let them know if it gets worse and sent me on my way. That's when I started searching and found Connect. I started doing my own research until I found something that helps me. If you like to do your own research, Google Scholar (https://scholar.google.com/) finds a lot of the latest medical research which I found helpful.

I also found the following two sites useful, in case you haven't seen them:
-- Neuropathy Commons: https://neuropathycommons.org/
-- Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy: https://www.foundationforpn.org/
