Treatment For Neuropathy In Grand Rapids, MI
Certain types of drugs, such as Gabapentin®, Lyrica®, Neurontin®, and Cymbalta®, don’t relieve neuropathy at its source. Instead, they conceal the pain by hindering nerve signals to the brain.
It’s not unheard of for patients who use these drugs to develop numbness, causing them to lose feeling throughout their bodies, fall, and/ or become wheelchair-bound. Because neuropathy involves damage to the nerves in the peripheral nervous system, it often requires an electric treatment to improve the nerves’ abilities to send and receive messages to patients’ brains.
Neuropathy & Its Causes
Because the causes of neuropathy are many and varied, the source of the condition isn’t always immediately apparent. Diabetes is the most prevalent cause of neuropathy. However, exposure to black mold, pesticides, and aspartame in diet soda can cause damage to the peripheral nervous system – which is what leads to neuropathy. Treatment involves repairing the nerves and their pathways, so that information from your feet and other parts of your body can make the journey to your brain.
Neuropathy can also be caused by certain treatments and medications, such as chemotherapy, cholesterol drugs, and high blood pressure drugs. Cholesterol medications can break down the myelin sheath coating nerves, while high blood pressure drugs sometimes abate blood flow to patients’ feet, thus causing neuropathy. Conditions, such as sleep apnea and acid reflux, are also known to cause neuropathy.

What Causes Peripheral Neuropathy?
Diabetes: Diabetes is one of the most common causes of PN due to how high blood sugar levels can damage nerves and nerve function.
Other Medical Conditions: Kidney, liver, and thyroid disease can all contribute to developing PN. Similarly, Lyme's Disease, HIV/Aids, and autoimmune diseases can trigger PN.
Medications: Certain medications can also cause PN, including chemotherapy drugs, antibiotics, specific pain relievers, and statin. Medications like statins can increase the probability of PN if used in the long term.
Injuries and Accidents: Physical trauma and injuries like car accidents, falls, and surgeries can also cause PN.
Environmental Toxins: Prolonged exposure to various toxins, including heavy metals, solvents, and industrial chemicals, can cause PN.
Alcoholism: Alcohol, as widespread as it is, is medically considered a toxin to the body, and consuming large quantities over time can result in PN and nerve damage.
Nutritional Deficiencies: For some people, the lack of vitamins like B12 can also cause neuropathy.
Inherited Disorders & Unknown Causes: Some forms of neuropathy generally can be inherited, and sometimes the causes may be unknown.
Sleep Apnea: Dr. Mann, doctor in South Florida, mentions that sleep apnea is a commonly overlooked cause of peripheral neuropathy (2021).
