Hi,

Usually, when damages to nervers have taken place, it is difficult (or not possible) to reverse.

With regards to diabetic neuropathy, the symptoms can be alleviated with the help of some vitamins and minerals (as the one you are already taking).

The very first thing to do in such cases is to optimize blood sugar level.

This can be achieved through lifestyle, dietary changes, drugs to lower blood sugar and the use of some supplements and herbal mixtures.

Hope it helped!
