Hi
Just started readin the book, "Numb toes and aching Soles".

There was a study conducted in 1998' suggesting, at least by implication, a possible link between Idiopathic neuropathy and cancer. The study was performed on 51 patients. More than a third developed cancer after the onset of their NP. The cancers being diagnosed at a mean interval of 27.9 months following onset of NP.
The mean age was 64.5 years.

Then it states at the end:

The investigations of the study did note two earlier studies had shown fewer instances of post-neuropathy cancer occurring than had their own.

Very scary stuff.
