please do not come to this website for this kind of advice. Try Dr Koop or other more credible sources

I'm not a doc, but I do have a type 2 in my life -- my husband. He developed really bad neuropathy in his feet and the doc told him there really wasn't much that could be done. I found a company that uses alternative health products and in just a week and a half, he got almost all the feeling back in his feet. Feel free to contact me for more information, but basically, start snooping around: there are answers out there for many who are willing to think beyond conventional Western medicine.

i was diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy, which causes, burning, tingling, pain, and of all things twitching also numbness, i take cymbalta for it, I'm a type one diabetic, maybe you need to get checked for diabetes...good luck
