Default Alan's sister was just diagnosed with Neuropathy

Well, isn't this interesting?? Their mother had Guillian Barre Syndrome MANY years ago and passed away at the age of 53.

Alan's sister had previously told me that she had a Morton's Neuroma and would get trigger shots. A few years ago when she was describing her symptoms I said to her 'that' s neuropathy" and she said "no, I have Morton's Neuroma"

So yesterday she went to the podiatrist and they did some kind of test and told her 'you definitely have Neuropathy"

She told the doctor that her brother has had it for 20 years and the doctor replied: 'Oh, it's hereditary"

Alan got on the phone and asked her 'how long have you had these symptoms and she said "over 20 years"

OVER 20 YEARS????

We never knew. He asked her why she never said anything and she said "I thought it was my Morton's Neuroma"

So what this means, I have no idea.

But Alan has had neuropathy for 20 years and now we find out that his sister has had burning feet, tingling, etc for 20 years!!!!

All I can say is OMG!!!!
