Has anyone found a treatment that helps with peripheral neuropathy?

Posted by bigjohnscho @bigjohnscho, Jul 1, 2025

I suspect that everyone on this forum has been searching for a medication that helps their neuropathy and even though you no that all the internet claims are false we continue to waste hundreds of pounds. Desperation is a powerful force. Has any one been fortunate enough to find a genuine treatment. I just can’t believe that there are so many awful people who prey on our vulnerability and knowingly orchestrate such elaborate scams.

@michhino I have neuropathy in my feet and walk 4 miles every morning but can only do so with good quality shoes . My old pair were wearing down and I didn't realize it until my pain started getting bad, pain up my legs , shins, hips and back to where I could barely move . I replaced my shoes (hokas ) with stability and shock absorption and the results were amazing, I had very little pain this morning and certain it will continue to improve, this was just day one . Footwear is so important with neuropathy. I also have fibromyalgia on top of it so definitely need supportive shoes .

@19281928 very true about the shoes. Even though my treatments work, there is only 1 pair of shoes l found that allows me on my feet. The fact that getting the right shoes allows you to walk 4 miles is already very good. As soon as l got on my feet l had too much pain, my treatments are gradually healing me and l can be on my feet for longer and longer every month.

@michhino Dogs are AMAZING. I'm a dog and cat lover. Just having a dog or cat setting/laying on my lap and petting a dog or cat helps me to stay calm. I'm waiting for the day when they announce that they have found "something" that will help "renew "the nerve endings "that are dying in my body (my legs). So, while I wait for that exciting news I keep on trying to find the medication that will take care of the NEVER-ENDING PAIN that I have from the PN and the LUMBAR SPINAL STENOSIS. I seem to have a double whammy when it comes to the pain. And, I do tend to have some negative thoughts come upon me and that is NO WAY TO START A NEW DAY with negative thoughts. I'm working on that. More POSITIVE THOUGHTS for me.
You have a BLESSED AND BEAUTFIUL DAY.

Does CET really work? I've had no success with anything for years. Thanks.

I have idiopathic peripheral neuropathy and recently had a Spinal implant put in my back BS SCS. While not perfect it helps significantly with the pain. Everyone is different but the pain meds come with side effects that are life changing and not in a good way for me. Admittedly, a necessary option but tapering off slowly now.
