I know very little about the Procedure, so can't answer that. I have great pain in my feet due to neuropathy, due to more than one illness. I know how difficult it is. I think some of it comes from vascular insufficiency in the feet's little vessels, when blood becomes thick and can't get through those vessels. I believe the Swank diet, which works on that stickiness, has helped me. After all, I am 81, still walking (in pain) and have not had a stroke, and I have two other diseases which could cause neuropathy. So I recommend a very low fat diet as a place to start. Have you had a CBC blood test to see if you have high platelets or red cells? Some people have this other disease (Polycythemia Vera) or other situations which clog fine vessels. I am doing far better than most people. So I am actually grateful. Praying for you.
