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.
In a study of over 3,000 doctors, The ReBuilder® was found to have an effectiveness rate of 96%. It’s used frequently in cancer hospitals to provide relief to patients coping with the symptoms of 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).
