Awwwwwww Joe, sorry about your ankle. I would come walk your dogs for ya, if my boss would let me have the time off, but he wouldn't and I'm sure your dogs would walk me!!! Feel better big guy.

I read all these accidents and they are something to worry about. I find myself cutting corners to close, it's hard to describe what I mean, yet afterwards, I think, wow, you can't do that, one of these days you are going to hurt yourself! It's such a weird feeling, it's like my legs lean a little, stressing my ankles--just the fact that I am realizing it has to mean something is not feeling right and it's time to change the behavior.

Neuropathy is such an everchanging creature. You read what one is feeling and you realize, hey, I felt that once, yet, now I feel this. My toes used to go numb all the time, very rarely now, yet, the soles of my feet are burning, which never happened and now, much to my dismay, my feet are liking socks and I am the barefoot queen. Still have to sleep barefoot though!!! Everchanging!!!!

We urge all doctors to take time to listen to your patients.. don't "isolate" symptoms but look at the whole spectrum. If a patient tells you s/he feels as if s/he's falling apart and "nothing seems to be working properly", chances are s/he's right!
