I have had it now and then. The above steps help and it is gone. It comes back when I skip the ALA for a day or two. I always smile when I see the "bees on the feet" or "tacks on the toes" ads. They come pretty close to what neuropathy sometimes feels like. I think they should add the "inner calves on fire" ad. 
Do a little resarch on Alph Lipoic Acid yourself. In Germany, they actually cure neuropathy with it.

"Chronic Neuropathy" is incurable in any country. It's permanent nerve damage. It can be 'symptom' controlled to varying degrees but not cured.
Well the nerves do grow back at 0.1 millimeter a year - but that's usually not gonna make enough difference for a sufferer of Chronic Neur...
