I know for many of us that's still a hard pill to swallow, but I must say it's a real relief for me and I'm very grateful for the new diagnosis.

I know others on the board have asked why they should bother with the NCV tests, and while it's just a tool, this is the third round of tests for me and seeing the improvement over 18 months is very heartening, even if my feet are currently on fire.
Congrats, get yourself some supplements to help with that burning and adjust your diet accordingly.
