Treatment options for Neuropathy
      #256095 - 06/07/11 04:06 PM

I have suffered from Neuropathy since 2000. At first they thought it was the Zerit that I was on becuase a side effect was Neuropathy and it could go away, it never did it just got worse. I have tried every drug from Neurotin to Lyrica with no pain releife. I then had a client that sold Tens units with conductive socks and gloves that could help with the pain. It was covered by my insurance so I got one and the socks. After a few days of treatment my feet started to hurt less and less. The pain didn't go away, but was not as bad, and I could wear shoes all day and not be in total agony. This treatment really works for the pain, it is not a cure, you have to keep up the treatment at least once or twice a day. I do it for 30 minutes a time. If anybody is interested in how to obtain one, please email me, or if you want to discuss your pain and what you have tried. It is Medicare and insurance approved. To see if you qualify you can go to a site, www.onlineMedSupplies.com and they will check your benefits and speak with your doctor to see if it is something that they will prescribe. I recommend this to anybody that is suffering like I am.

My doc tried me on cymbalta it works for me but the hardest part is getting the state insurance to cover the med. My doctor had to go through a lot to get it approve
