Hi Optimumeg - sorry - I cant remember - what is your diagnosis? Is it definate? When you say "in your area" does that mean the type of neuropathy that you have??? (sensory, motor, etc etc????)
Remember - you can start out with mild symtoms at first (I did - just numb hand and foot - wheelchair within two years) and progress quickly and if a cause can be determined you are way ahead of the game.... just concerned that your docs may be just sitting back and waiting - and if they arent proactive you'll be the one who pays for it.....
