I do not know what type of PN I have. I read many messages where people list the type of PN they have. Does knowing the type have any influence in eliminating the pain or discomfort?

I do go to a Neurologist and he has confirmed that I have PN. My blood work has shown no problem. My GP classifies me as pre-diabetic based on the fact that my A1C and glucose is at the high end of the acceptable range and diabetes runs in my family. I have been at the high end for more than 20 years (95-115).

I have had numbness in the front half of my feet for more than 5 years. It is mostly a discomfort rather than any sharp pain.
