Laurie, did your neuropathy get worse again after you stopped? Glad you didn't have any adverse affects from it [or the ones that you did were treated]. If your insurance approved again, would you do it?

I am still doing well though. There are no adverse effects from trying the therapy. If your insurance will pay - I would go for it.
