There are some well known hereditary neuropathies such as the Charcot-Marie-Tooth variants, and some not so well known ones, such as the hereditary sensory neuropathies associated with point mutations:

As you can see, it's a long list, and these are only the ones that have been documented to this point . . . |
Glenn:
Thank you very much. It will take me a long time to properly read and understand those links.
the one that caught my eye (because of the age of onset) (he AND his sister), is the Ataxia Neuropathy.
I'm going to look into this one. (Not that this is the one has) but I just want to read about this.
And I gather because Neuropathy is Neuropathy, that there is nothing they can do at this stage of HIS neuropathy.
I really do believe the only relief anyone who has the burning and tingling, and once they have tried the neurontin and everything else, the ONLY respite would be medical marijuana. It's natural, and if used correctly, wel it would stop the burning.
Let's hope NY passes it.
And Glenn, I can't thank you enough.
