Hi

So sorry you're having these problems.

I do want you to know you're not alone.

You have found a great place to share your experiences and hear so many others, with their experiences.

There are new things every day to help relieve pain and discomfort in many areas. don't give up.

I found LED and infrared light therapy pads to be most helpful. Here is a site for that.

http://www.healthlightz.com/

They have helped me tremendously. If you would like to know more, you can PM me or contact them.


They are cheaper versions, but this particular one helped me. I can also sell those but didn't have time to start the business. I will some day, though, if time permits.

The American Neurological Society endorsed those at one time.
Here's a liink for them.

http://www.aneuroa.org/i4a/pages/index.cfm?pageid=1

might be something in there you might find interesting.

Hope you do find some relief soon.

I understand neuropathy is very painful for those who suffer from it.

Hi Roger, I am sorry for your plight. I don't know much about neuropathy, or what state you live in. I have heard that marijuana has helped many neurological disorders. I dont know first hand, but I have watched many documentarys on the subject. It appears that there are few side effects with many pros to it. Like I said it is just a thought, by no means am I telling you to try something illegal.
