    For herbal remedies, I use magnesium, alpha lipoic acid, B vitamins nutrients folic acid, and carnitine L. I do not use drugs other than aspirin or ibuprofen at times. It can be pre-diabetic or who have a nutritional imbalance, or other problems that cause damage to myelin.

    Taken directly from Wikipedia, “In addition to diabetes (see Diabetic neuropathy), the most common causes of neuropathy are herpes zoster infection, HIV / AIDS, toxins, alcoholism, chronic trauma (such as repetitive motion disorders) or trauma acute (including surgery), neurotoxins various autoimmune diseases such as celiac disease, which may account for approximately 16% of cases of small fiber neuropathy. neuropathic pain is common in cancer as a direct result of cancer on peripheral nerves (eg compression by a tumor), the side effect of many chemotherapy drugs, and as a result of electrical injury. In many cases no obvious cause can be found in this case the pain is idiopathic “means that no cause is found.” Treatments “Neuropathic pain can be very difficult to treat. Sometimes strong opioid analgesics may provide only partial relief. opioid analgesics should be considered only as a tertiary treatment. Several classes of drugs not normally considered analgesics are often effective, alone or in combination with opioids and other treatments. These include tricyclic antidepressants such as amitriptyline (Elavil ®), anticonvulsants such as gabapentin (Neurontin ®) and pregabalin (Lyrica ®). “Check out the Wikipedia entry on” neuropathy for a more complete response.

    I have been a type 1 diabetic for 52 years. I have suffered from PN for about 20 years. The PN has become disabling for the last 3 years. I have tried every medication, vitamin therapy and topical cream available. Some have intolerable side effects and just don’t work. I am presently on a large dose of neurontin which helps me tolerate the pain. Recently I came across a new product called Solleve. It is a battery operated shoe insole. I was so surprised when I used it. I got immediate relief! I also found that I got a residual effect for quite a while after I turned them off. You can more information at Solleve.com. I continue to successfully use the Solleve insole with continued succes.
