It is a misery but I found what cause it to flair the better off I was and am.

As long as my sugar is between 80 and 100 I hardly feel anything. I just spent 2 weeks almost with the exception of small discomfort pain free.

This was until I was going through a very stressful period and had an Apple maple Mega Muffin. Now I have the burning, legs ache, feet numb the whole nine yards. For me it's staying away from carbs that makes a hugh difference.

Neuropathy may a chronic disease but you don't have to suffer every day with it.

Just get the right Team of Doctors.
Just that term of saying there is no cure for Neuropathy would make me forget that Doctor. It can be controlled. Gabapentin did not work for me I am on Lyrica but its Lyrica and a regime that is followed.
