Has anybody watched the Devinci method to cure neuropathy?The video follows the same format as all the other scams so I am immediately sceptical.There product is called Nervo Vive. Has anyone tried this and found it works?It’s all to do with the hole at the base of the skull which the nerves must pass through to access the brain.

Haven't seen it and really don't have time to waste on watching it. First thing that comes to my mind is Run Forrest Run. Of course that is just my non medical opinion. Bottom line for me is where is the validated scientific research that supports all of their claims. All I see is advertising.

There is no cure and there will never be a cure for PN. The scammers are all over the place with cures for everything. All we can do is learn how to live with PN and yes its not fun, but don’t spend your money on Bovine Residue products.

Welcome @fzadroga6491, I don't think I would waste my money trying it. I don't know of any clinical trials or research behind it. There are some supplements that have shown to help with neuropathy. If you are looking at trying supplements, the Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy has a list of the supplements in their Complimentary and Alternative Treatments listed here - https://www.foundationforpn.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Complementary-and-Alternative-Treatments-Revised-2020-final.-1.pdf.

What are your neuropathy symptoms? Have you been diagnosed with a specific type of neuropathy?

I am new to this forum although I have been suffering with peripheral neuropathy for 2 years (none diabetic). Like most sufferers I have searched endlessly to find supplements that provide some relief and a possible cure. My search has proved how impossible this quest is and so expensive due to misleading adverts and down right scams.What would be really helpful if members posted their experiences with supplements they’ve tried , which were useless/helpful or obvious scams. I am sure there must be some helpful supplements out there and we would all benefit if these were posted on this forum.

Thank you John for this list.
So far, I have dropped one 900mg dose of Gabapentin (now at 1800mg). I take 3 Dynamic Nerve supplements one time a day. Now on day 13 and don't feel worse. So, I will continue on this way for a bit. I have six months of Dynamic Nerve. Cross your fingers!

Cheers, Jill

Has anybody tried Scrambler Therapy? I think The Mayo Clinic uses it as one of its treatments for neuropathy..

Has anyone tried the Orthoback Vibrastone?It is a hand held device which vibrates and heats when applied to the area of neuropathic pain, feet for example. It’s on the internet with an explanation of how it works.

I just did a search for reviews on TrustPilot, a reputable site. It gives this thing(as I fully expected) 94% 1 star ratings. So, I would say save your money.

I have tried everything from creams, supplements R-Alpha Lipoic Acid to EMS foot massager. I am a type 2 diabetic. I took Metformin for 20 years. It seems to be the cause of my neuropathy. It striped away the B12 that supports the nerves. Things that get me through the never ending pain flare ups in my feet is daily EMS helps, Aspercreme with Lidocaine, and keeping my legs and feet moisturized. I use the diabetic lotions. I no longer take Metformin if you are diabetic get off it now. There are newer drugs that won’t have the side effects. The loss of B12 is the main reason our nerves are no long working. It is so hard to rejuvenate the B12 in supplements. Most supplements use synthetic B12 as their ingredient. So if you know of anything that is almost a sure cure for this expensive and almost endless struggle please pass it my way. I continue to exercise and keep praying for a cure. Save your money all advertisers are SCAMs. Restore B12 don’t know how get your life back.
