Thank you Sally
I have good days ( think I remember what they are ) and bad days there has been days where I have been in pain that I have thought about taking a knife to my foot/leg just to ease the pain as far as my family go think the words the use are something like I have a sore foot or a foot problem

Glad I found the site as not a lot of uk site for this

Welcome to NeuroTalk.

It sounds like this might be a hereditary neuropathy, with it starting when you were a teen ager?

Did the doctor suggest that or diagnose that?
