Question:
I am not diabetic but I have neuropathy!?
I am on a pain patch for the pain. The drugs that should have worked for nerve pain has done nothing for me. The pain is in both feet and goes up my legs mid-way to my knees. Is there any hope, are help put there? can this be revesrsed?
Answers:
Asking in this particular section will only net you a bunch of quack cures that waste your money, time, and do nothing for your pain beyond what a placebo would do.
Talk to your doctor about this; A nerve specialist might be able to help.
I know you're probably feeling desperate, but beware of many claims you are going to encounter claiming to cure your condition. At best they will do nothing, at worst they will harm you.
A great resource for weeding out quack claims from things that might actually help are:
www.quackwatch.org
www.homeowatch.org (homeopathic claims examined)
http://www.mskcc.org/mskcc/html/11570.cf...
The second site is a resource for finding out about safety and efficacy research on herbs.
I wish you the best and hope you find respite from your pain without well meaning and not-so-well-meaning folks parting you from your money and time without helping your pain.
