    It's a pity this list does not mention the FREMS eletrical therapy as an option for treating neuropathy caused by diabetes. This is a non invasive stimulation therapy on the extremities. This method is not to be confused with TENS, which has an immediate short term effect. A FREMS treatment cycle is 10 times 40 minutes on consecutive days. The effect of this lasts for 3-5 months. The NNT is estimated 2,5 (>50% VAS pain score reduction).
