I hate hearing things like that. The assumption there is that everybody's body is exactly the same, and it's completely inconceivable that some people may be predisposed to neuropathy for some unknown reason?

In some Type 2 diabetics, neuropathy surfaces before they even officially meet the criteria for a diabetes diagnosis. There's no predisposition there?

Ugh.
