Welcome @lamplighter1, I'm sorry to hear you haven't found any help for relief from your neuropathy symptoms. The best comprehensive list of treatments I've seen is on the Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy's website here - https://www.foundationforpn.org/treatments/

John, Volunteer Mentor---Thank YOU so much for giving me some direction with the sources for research. Baptist Neurology and UF Neurology never told me about these sources. After many tests and about a year , a specialist at UF downtown Jacksonville did a biopsy in two places on my leg and sent it up to Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, Maryland. After a month. the biopsy results came back and said SMALL NERVE FIBER NEUROPATHY!! The UF neurologist cut me lose since the pregabalin and nortriptyline were not helping me. Frustration trying to find a well recommended pain doctor locally to try to treat the symptoms or miraculously come up with a cause of this condition in my body!!

Your help is refreshing!!
