I've had neuropathy for three years. it began on the top of my legs and reproductive area and it spread in about three months to my calves and feet. I was given prednisone and then IVIG. It hasn¡'t progressed eversince.

Objectively speaking it has improved a little. For example, when crossing my legs i could feel that my foot being pulled down, like a super gravity force or feeling of it being heavy. That i don't experience anymore. i also remember i used to describe my pain like a long worm or a snake slithering in my calves. Now i don't experience that very much, and it feels more like little bugs.

I have been taking a lot of supplements, also one recommended by a mexican doctor who discovered an unknown mechanism in the human body.

I guess the combination of meds and supplements has enabled me to heal.

I forgot to say this before, in the beginning, when my neuropathy was diagnosed. I had EMG and NVC and they showed nerve damage, after IVIG and a hyperbaric medicine treatment i took the same tests and they showed no damage. I'm not sure which one did the job.
