Default Do you know anything about Microvas?

I have had pn for 20 years, but for the past year my feet are extremely painful and have tried everything! I just went to a new podiatrist who suggested using Microvas treatments. Does anyone have experience with this?

Default My take--

--on the MicroVas approach is that it is more for treatment of slow-to-heal wounds caused by diabetes and exacerbated by the fact that the small-fiber neuropathy of diabetes hinders neural control of blood/lymph flow, which contributes to the inability to get nutrients and oxygen in to teh area and toxic waste out of it. It probably won't have much of an effect on the neuropathy process itself, though, except to the extent that the mechanism of neuropathy in diabetes is primarily ischemic, and anything that helps ciruclation is a good thing.

You should come on over to the peripheral neuropathy forum here--much expertise on the subject:
