Personally , I have sensory neuropathy for about 5 years now and I feel pain control and diet is the key for me. Low carb low fat gluten free is hard to do but I try. I never heard of neuropathy a few years ago and now it is my life , there are something's you can do to make your life better before resulting to the so called " Chair " . Get your blood drawn and get tested from A to Z. Try to find out if it is a vitamin or a mineral, heavy metals or toxins can play a major role in this. As for me nobody knows ,but my nerves are turning back on only after a few months of supplements and change of diet. It will take time and Never give up , God bless you ! Peace !
Thank you so much. I will take your advice and it does give me hope. Katie O
