Welcome to Mayo Connect, and thank-you for all of your suggestions based on your personal experience. I am a caregiver for my wife who has peripheral neuropathy (PN) in her feet also, also mostly up to her ankles and only occasionally higher but not usually.

Your suggestions are very interesting. I will put Theracurmin on my list of things to explore further. Also the STOP PAIN spray sounds interesting as well. Worth taking for a test drive. Finally, the sarapin for back pain should be something some people here will probably want to try out.

Great you found a doctor you love, that is GOLDEN. Don't let her get away! You really seem to be something of a success story compared to many other PN sufferers. The fact that you are not only coping but thriving (or so it sounds) is amazing. Great that your walking has improved and your need for a cane has reduced. So I assume you have your diabetes under control, correct? Any other health issues besides that, the PN and the back/sciatic issue?

I hope you will share more of your great ideas here and i also hope you will partake of the deep knowledge base available here from so many (sadly) very experienced pain sufferers. I have learned a tremendous amount on Connect including some unique suggestions (like yours) for my wife to try that I otherwise would never have heard about. Plus, there is great support to be found here from wonderful quality people. Look forward to hearing more from you!

Best, Hank

Just ordered the Theracurmin that you mentioned. It sounds pretty good. The price is pretty high though. It says on the bottle directions that you can take 2 caps/day for seven days then cut back to one a day. Is that what you do? Thanks, Hank
