All these alternative Neuropathy treatments are so expensive 😪. I’m miserable and desperate though. I have neuropathy all over my entire body from a severe spinal cord injury. I wouldn’t wish this on my worst enemy. It’s truly awful.
I had interstitial neuralgia... 2 nerves got smashed between my ribs. Then those nerves swelled. It felt like my whole left side was being crushed. It was extremely painful and there was nothing I can do except take painkillers and anti-inflammatories and wait. I went to a chiropractor who offered acupuncture. It gave me so much relief!! I literally felt the pain sensation change based on how and where she placed the needles. Truly amazing experience. Neuralgia isn't neuropathy, but acupuncture definitely works for nerves. Neuropathy is a common issue, from diabetes, after chemo or antibiotic damage, or spinal cord injury. Acupuncture truly does work! And btw, long-term use of high doses of gabapentin negatively affects cognitive function, especially memory.
My experience with Gabapentin was 600 mg 4 times a day . As a result all of a sudden I completely lost my memory. I thought it was me, it was me taking Gabapentin. I stopped taking Gabapentin completely and my memory has come back completely. There is an addiction associated with Gabapentin and withdrawal symptoms also. And the doctors give it away like candy. I also had strange thoughts of suicide. After reading all the side effects this is to be some of the known side effects of Gabapentin. Beware of these effects upon you I would rather be able to remember then to not remember either way I had neuropathy. I would rather be able to remember always that was really scary
I love your videos! Could you maybe do one on your process of becoming an acupuncturist?? I am wanting to pursue that career, so that would help me a lot!

I just started acupuncture for idiopathic progressive neuropathy I'm not diabetic, have no pain. After two sessions it seems worse. Should I continue with treatment
Well depends it’s basically free where I’m at I pay 5$ a visit with insurance coverage. But 1000$ for 24 treatments is actually relatively affordable but of course you’re in GB so I can understand why spending any significant amount of money on health care can come as a shock.

Sad that it's so expensive. Only for the people with $.
Acupuncture cured my nerve damage in left left after one session it’s was almost a miracle like experience.
For how long you’ve had the neuropathy?

I am on gabapentin, and I started to feel like my memory was changing. I thought it was just me.

Is it covered by insurance and what does it cost
How many sittings are required to treat peripheral neuropathy?
Have you tried it yet? Did it help?
Yes i took 10 sessions it did not help at all.
@Ayesha Khan that's what I'm worried about. Sometimes it's just a cash grab by these clinics.
I just started acupuncture for idiopathic progressive neuropathy
I'm not diabetic, have no pain. After two sessions it seems worse. Should I continue with treatment
But what are the points ?
Anyome is west palm
Is acupuncture can help treat venous insufficiency?
Anyone in Fayetteville NC you can refer to
So, if up to 24 visits are needed to reduce neuropathy, each visit typically costing in GB about £40-£50, then expect to pay more than £1000.........
Well depends it’s basically free where I’m at I pay 5$ a visit with insurance coverage. But 1000$ for 24 treatments is actually relatively affordable but of course you’re in GB so I can understand why spending any significant amount of money on health care can come as a shock.
I saw reduction of neuropathy in one visit. If you deal with neuropathy daily, it's very much worth the 1000.
YES YES YES!!!!
Who can afford acupuncture a few times a week. Hundreds of dollars. I'm out!
NO !
What does No mean it didn’t work ?
