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.

Don’t know if this is the place for my comment. I am 73 and diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy in my hands just 2 months ago. I now have numbness in my feet. I went from normal walking to a cane and now a walker. This all happened since September. Is this speed of deterioration something other people have experienced?
