Hi Steven, How is neuropathy since going gluten-free? Have seen improvement? Isn't there a test for gluten sensitivity? I don't eat meat, so giving up gluten would be huge for me. I'd certainly be happy to do it if it improved my pain and mobility though.

Hey Stacy, I read an interview with a neurologist who said he frequently saw non-diabetic people with polyneuropathy that turned up with diabetes a few years later. It was ancedotal, but this problem is being caused by something. Keeping tight control on your blood sugar isn't going to hurt you. It's worth a shot. I hate the way MDs always say it's definitely not caused by something, when they don't know what is causing it.
