Ontario: I'll mention a couple more things I tell others when they join with this issue:

Inosine the supplement really helps my neuropathy issue.

Topicals for the areas like: Topricin homeopathic lotion, aspercream with lidocaine, ultra tiger balm, Arnica with DMSO and others but I buy them online from health suppliers and amazon.

And I take 1 ibuprofen and 1 extra strength tylenol every 6 hours and make sure food in in my stomach....this keeps me in management.

I am mega yrs older than you and also deal with advanced arthritis....so a lot but I work hard to keep moving and relatively low burn/tingle issues and all t his came from damaged hip replacement.

Go to the PN group., there is so much info there. Many also use ALA as I recall. Also otc supplement.

Thank you so much for the info on supplements. I recently had a doc appt for MRI results. MRI was on my back to rule out a pinched nerve. There is nothing showing up on the test. The doc said about me wanting an answer as to how this started and a fix. I said yes. He just said neuropathy is not curable if it is neuropathy, however next appt will be with a neurologist. I have weened myself off the lyrica. Not a nice drug, but it did work to stop the spasms. Still have the tight sock feeling. No pain. Thankful for that.
I appreciate this support group.
