Personal Update

I do not regret trying to find a peripheral neuropathy cure with a functional medicine specialist.

I do not think the treatments, supplements, and diet have helped my damaged nerves.
If I get stressed, I feel as badly as ever.

However, the attempt was worthwhile in many other respects.
I got extensive lab tests done that were covered by our medical insurance which helped eliminate some worries and the diet helped me to reverse metabolic disease (pre-diabetes and hypertension) much more efficiently than I would have done on my own.
Plus we got a free Keurig coffee machine!

In all honesty, I could not give a testimonial for the treatment of peripheral neuropathy but I could recommend functional medicine to those plagued by other conditions.

I did blow another $20 on his book, hoping to find something I may have missed but his book is mostly an advertisement for his practice and greatly exaggerates his promised personalized approach.

(I have removed the doctor's name from my blog because I could not give him an objective evaluation being very disappointed in the results.  If anyone wants to try to reverse metabolic disease, try an anti-inflammatory diet of no grain and no dairy).
