Has anyone tried treatment for diabetic neuropathy?

Good morning, yowchies (@yowchies),

My PN is not diabetes-linked, but I thought I'd ask if you've visited the Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy's webpage, perhaps even more so the Foundation's YouTube page. On their YouTube page, under Videos, you'll find recordings of the Foundation's many hour-long webinars, a number of which (if I recall correctly) deal with diabetes-linked PN.

I would give you more precise information on finding these sites, but at the moment my computer's browser blocker prevents me from going anywhere on the Internet other than to Mayo Connect.

I wish you the best of success in finding a bucketload of useful help! –Ray (@ray666)

I actually found more info about what I believe happened to me, and great detail on how this cluster of symptoms related to rapid A1C reduction differs from the PN typically associated with diabetes.

An article titled 'Treatment-induced neuropathy of diabetes: an acute, iatrogenic complication of diabetes' was a good starting point as it also references other studies and sources with further detail.

Here is a link for the curious: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4285188/

I found some hope in that there may be considerable chances of reversing some of the symptoms, based on my (perhaps optimistically biased) reading of the data.
