Hi Sarah,

Since I started this thread trying to find another ReBuilder, and you expressed interest in it, I feel obligated to express my somewhat limited experience with it. To begin with, the reviews are very divided about ReBuilder. Many say it didn’t help them at all and many say it helped a great deal. Do your own research on this site and the PN Foundation BB site (not a great site, in my opinion) and at the ReBuilder site, as well as with any “real contacts” like me and those that I have talked to. Keep in mind that there are many Neuropathy problems and causes and significant differing timelines when these folks started using the device.

First off, my PN is attributed to my Scleroderma and associated vascular and circulation issues. I used the ReBuilder from January through June, before losing it on a recent trip. For me, for one thing, the device enabled me to stop taking Lyrica. That is very clear now that I haven’t used the device for the last month, and once again I am back to using Lyrica to be functional during the day and occasionally to settle the PN so I can get a decent night sleep.

For me, the ReBuilder pretty much eliminated the PN in my L foot and improved my R foot PN by about 50%. This helped a lot. Additionally, when my feet were really burning, the device did sooth them significantly for quite a while. This would work very well at bedtime.

So, in general, I am very excited about the replacement unit that is now in the mail for me.

Sarah, the ReBuilder may not do anything for you, however, wouldn’t it be wonderful if it could help you not need the drugs, like in my case.

Randy
