Default Alan has feeling in the tips of his toes!!!

Alan went to the neurologist today. She did the test where she touches you on the various parts of your body (with him, it's his feet that have been completely numb for over 10 years).

Well, it seems THERE IS A BIT OF A DIFFERENCE TODAY.

He came home saying "guess what?, when the doctor did her test thing on the tips of my toes, I felt it". I said 'YOU DID WHAT??" And he said "but I still have the pain between my toes, so I don't know what this means".

I said 'well, think about it, you haven't felt anything on any of your toes for 10 years, right??" (You should see when the podiatrist cuts his toe nails, the guy used to give him a look as if to say "you dont' feel this"???.

Well, today, (for whatever reason), when the doctor touched some tips of his toes, he felt it.

Now I know someone has an opinion on this.

Maybe his sensations are coming back?? He still has pain, he shakes his feet because they are tingling. Maybe something is being affected?? Maybe the IVIG is finally doing something (besides helping him with his balance).??

He doesn't take the B-12. I do.

So anybody have a clue on what is going on here??

Thanks, Melody
P.S. I think it's all good, right??
