Surprised to find that my burning has diminished around 50% at least and very tolerable. previously it was in my hands and started burning up to my knees, now its nearly gone from my hands and only below the ankles. Does red meat somehow irritate the neuro system? or was it the diet coke? either way the hunger has stopped and weight is dropping off so hope its not just a pullback but a sign of better days ahead
