Joe--I am going to let my mom know about your suggestion. She had lumbar surgery in Nov 05. 12" of steel rod, 16 screws and she still is in misery. Now her right hip is in bad shape and she absolutely does not want anymore surgery. She had been walking with a walker, finally was able to get around, now she has a cane because she can not put any weight on the hip. She is only 70 and should still beable to enjoy her life--she can't go grocery shopping with my dad anymore, she refuses the electric wheelchairs, can't walk the store, she is very depressed about all this. My mom and dad always do everything together. I will let her know about this--maybe I will buy her some and send it to them. Thanks.

Wish it could help our neuropathy!

Good luck LizaJane--I hope Mayo figures this all out for you. If they do, we will have to let my mom know too. Have a safe trip.
