I am insulin-dependant and I have developed neuropathy in my hands and feet. During the day, I can keep busy so that I don't notice the pain, however, when I am trying to go to sleep at night, I have a very difficult time.
Does anyone know a homeopathic remedy to help with the pain? I can't afford the prescription medication.
Thanks for your input.

I don't have the neuropathy but I do have the starting of RA in both hands. I end up with a lot of pain in them especially late at night and early mornings. Believe it or not using bengay (Or any muscle rub) on them helps. I rub it in like a lotion and it soothes the pain.
If mild heat or cold does help I do know they sell these gloves you can put on that you first either put in the freezer or in the microwave depending on which you need. I saw them in the pharmacy area near the other type of heating pads and sore muscle relief. It might be something to check on.
I hope this helps and I do wish you luck with it.

First, make sure you check with your doctor or ANY doctor but I read an article about Alpha Lipoic Acid. Check into it.
