   Above answer has the right idea. Maintaining a healthy blood sugar level isn't that hard, and I've heard of cases where neuropathy was reversed by getting healthy. I would work on that before I tried some electronic gadget that probably won't do a thing but get a chunk of your money. The stuff I've done works. Check out my bloodwork chart and see: http://www.geocities.com/seabulls69/Type_II_Diabetes.html

   No idea but a combination of vitamin B , Acetyl L-Carnitine and Alpha Lipoic Acid helped me no end.

   No. Shockwave therapy is for other conditions.

   If the neuropathy is painful, ask you doctor about Lyrica or neurontin.
   Both can work well to relieve the pain.
