I have had PN in my feet for over 15 years. I know that it is probably genetic as my Aunt, Dad and Sister all suffered with it. I have been able to manage it using good diet and supplements. It is now just in my toes with no pain, just numbness and sometimes tingling. I am fine with not knowing the actual cause as it really doesn't matter as there is really not much that the mainstream medical community can do about it. I have not had extensive tests as I didn't want to waste my money.

I go to a dr that takes a very progressive integrated approach to treating his patients. He has tested for food allergies and nutritional deficiencies. Following his advice and using the diet and supplements suggested in this forum has really helped.

Have a very Happy New Year!
