The Tens machines, i.e., Nooro, I think, feels good, as well as a Therapy Company known as "Nerve Renewal" which uses stronger tens machines, but they will not solve the problem. I have been going to therapy for 2 years and my pain will just get worse, but I stay ON MY FEET. KEEP MOVING. Try getting some "Barefoot" brand shoes, and the socks they advertise to help neuropathy, which make your feet feel like they are being massaged a little. I love my Barefoot shoes, they do run small though). I have to get up in the middle of the night, which is 4 am right now, to stretch and work out the pain that comes in the night. The lower the temperature outside, the worse the pain. Barometric pressure changes are not our friend. I have reduced my sugar intake, trying to eat more fruits and vegetables an only take Tylenol for pain. Vitamin C, Vitamin B Complex. I went to Cleveland Clinic and they believe in only good food and Vitamins. The pain medicines did not work for me, a zombie, not happening. I am still able to play golf and light pickleball, but would rather live all day long than have to go to bed. I can usually sleep pretty well after not sleeping for 3 nights. Stay as active as you can for as long as you can, and keep working out. Hope that helps.
