I started out backwards, I guess. The first symtom for me was numb feet. My feet would burn, then go numb, especially my toes. At that time, I was working fulltime as a dept manager at Kmart, and on my feet all day, on cement floors no less. I could never find a shoe that was comfy, nothing pleased my feet. That was 7 or 8 yrs ago. 4 yrs ago, I started taking B12 1000mcg, then about 2 yrs ago or so, I moved up to 3000mcg. My feet very rarely go numb now. I can't say all the symptoms are gone, but they are much better.

I have sensory neuropathy, probably due to nutritional deficiencies, because of a gluten intolerance.

Just keep reading and researching.

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!
