Alpha Lipoic Acid really helped my husband's PN. His too was drug induced. He used Alpha back in 2003 since R-Lipoic wasn't available then.

If you have a local compounding pharmacy, you can ask them for names of doc in the area. This would give a place to start your search for doc who does IV nutrients.

NAC (N-Acetyl-Cystiene) (sp), is also very good for boosting ones own glutathione.

John also got relief from the Rebuilder. You can do a search on it in this forum and many posts will come up.

Chiropractic adjustments helped tremendously with his gait, balance and even some of the pain.

Now, I do reflexology on his feet using therapeutic grade essential oils. And he gets relief from this. His feet continue to heal. He was at an 8 or 9 on the pain scale. His feet were purple on the top and white on the bottom. He's probably down to a 1 now and the color is pretty much back to normal. Burning sensation is his biggest issue in the summer when his feet get hot.
