Anyone here dealing with peripheral neuropathy?

Hi @suzylulu -- I have not tried acupuncture but I have tried a few different feedback devices and really did not see any benefit. I'm open to any alternative type treatments that might work to help with the numbness but so far have found nothing that makes it entirely get back to normal. I do take some over the counter supplements that have helped stopped the progression of the PN in my legs but that's kind of subjective on my part as I've not had any additional EMGs or other tests to prove the nerve test results are better than when I was diagnosed.

Hope some others that have tried acupuncture can share their experience here.

John

Hello John I have yet to hear anybody with the same symptoms I have with PN. I have heart attack like symptoms and no body can explain it or find the cause. It has taken a toll on me mentally and physically. I have tried a dozen different meds but nothing has helped except the side effects has caused a cataract in my eye. I have even tried a spine stimulator with no relief. Just the smallest activity causes the symptoms to flare up. This has been going on for two yrs now.. My cardiologist says I am unique because standard testing does not work on me, even my family Dr is at a loss I have seen neurologist at Mayo and here as well. Every Dr is puzzled.
