Thank you for the info however I have exhausted my efforts to bring relief not to mention just a little with no success. I am insulin dependent as Metformin for diabetes is absolute waste at least for me.

And as far as neuropathy(PN), I decided to finally cope with the discomfort, numbness, tingling, etc. especially feet. I continue to take Gabapentin, Juniva, Icy Hot, sleeping pills, etc.. and until this day, I do not know why! I think its just a mind thing as I think pain will eventually disappear.

I also molded myself its simply part of the remaining life with no real cure. To say the least, I am one of those unlucky humans....

Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2024.

Hi Michhino
I read your post with much interest.
So sorry for your predicament but I am in the same boat as you are without the diabetics.
My neuropathy is a result of prostate cancer radiation. The cancer is gone thank God but ten years later, the radiation treatment did cause some nerve damage and peripheral neuropathy came to be my daily existence.' I have tried and still do everything under the sun.
Most important is going to the gym 5 days a week I take no medication at all just vitamins and I am now using "Infrared" treatment twice daily 20 minutes for about a year with no results.
My only hope in all this is that the numbness and pain will not progress any farther than it is.
I am 85 and walking with a cane. , but I am active as much as possible, I go on bus tours and try to be as positive as possible about this one fact of life I cannot change.'
Mary Christmas and Happy Holidays to you and your family.
