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.
Yesterday, I ate a piece of very sweet key lime pie & within minutes my feet were in agony & I could barely walk. My wife suggested I drink a lot of water so I drank 2 liters in the early afternoon & another liter in the early evening plus a 1/2 liter of Perrier with dinner. After dinner I was relieved of almost all of the discomfort, still a bit numb of course, but not bad. I woke up this morning & my feet feel better still.
There’s a lesson here for all of us - stay hydrated!
I am glad to hear something has helped you. As I have written before nothing has helped me (except one pill that I use when I want some small relief - Tramadol) however I do not take it as prescribed, 4x/day, as I could not function under that drugged state. I guess that after 10+ years of this insidious malady and false ads I stopped looking for a panacea. Nooro was the latest I tried and after 2+ months and being bombarded by their advertising machine offering more and more devices I returned it and surprisingly the ads bombardment stopped! Good thing They were true to their word and refunded what I had paid for it. I am under the care of a very understanding and caring pain management physician who has also tried to find some relief for this frustrating illness. Epidural injections, a pain management implant that also did not work. The latest is another type of implant, that he said it might work and to see if it could help I had a “lumbar medial branch block” that is a diagnostic procedure to determine if the implant a”Dorsal Rout (or bout) Ganglion would be adequate to “mask” the pain as doctors consider to be the numbness, tingling and cold/burning sensation that affects me the most. No dice! So I guess that for me, a panacea does not exist. To top everything off, I have now became a diabetic, type 2 to deal with. A new fight to undertake! We must not give up and try to live with what we have been dealt in life. Good luck to you all in the quest for a better life.
OMG! You are dealing with a lot. I been through and tried everything you listed and nothing worked at all. Right now in the a.m. I take Duloxetine Pregabalin R Ala Lipoic
Acid Triamterene HCTZ and one Tramadol. Once they kick in I start feeling good then take 1 Tramadol around 4 and feel good for the rest
It does give u a little euphoria but I’d rather have that than home bound with pain. No way could I take that many TRAMADOL
Would not be able to function. Good luck to you-keep experimenting until you find what works for you!!

I have had ideopathic neuropathy for over 30 years. Pain is minimal and occasional, therefore pain relief is not my issue. However tingling and balance is a major issue. I wear support hose and have found Frankinsence amd Myrrh balm helpful for the tingling and venous insufficiency. I also take Nerve Renew and Nitric Oxide booster. I ran out of it a few months ago and noticed a real difference in how my legs felt during that period. Also inject Vitamin B12 monthly. I have had physical therapy for balance issues and use a rolling walker for stability. I purchased some Hike "earth shoes" and will give them a try.
I have had neighbors problems for many years. When I was first diagnosed about 5;years ago they had no treatment. I started taking Juice Plus products that are organic concentrations of fruits and vegetables. I continued takiing the one that is filled with berries. They have helped considerably with the numbness. I started taking 2 a day and I now take 5-6 a day. Just a few days ago I added another supplement from Stonehenge Health. It is helping to increase the feelings in my feet and legs. I haven't had pain from my neuropathy. My brother has both legs and feet numb. He is not treating it. The se products that I am taking would not cost nearly as much as what you are paying. I don't sell the Juice Plus products. I can give you information on the person who helps me. She is very knowledgeable
On the products. Best wishes.

I see that some of you are working with a pain management clinic and wondering if they every talked about Lyrica? I have been on it for over 1 yr. and yes, some people do experience side effects but the only one that I am sure about is weight gain. I think it is specifically to treat nerve pain so unlike tramadol, etc. this wouldn't work for a broken bone type pain. I am interested to know if you have heard about Lyrica or tried it. Thanks.
