So sorry for you. I am 72 and dealing with this for maybe 10 years. Neuropathy was caused by diabetes but my numbers were never real bad. As per doctors orders, I'm pretty strict with my diet, not perfect but strict. I am not even heavy. It has basically ruined my life as when it flares up I do not want to be far from home base. I take Gabapentin 2400 per day. Maybe works a little, maybe. "like getting your foot run over by a truck, them having boiling water poured on it" says it all. I've tried stem cell, prp, light therapy, electro-acupuncture, many different pills and lotions. NADA!!!! I hope you find something and pass it on to all of us. Good luck, my friend!!!
