Well it has been 2 years since my last neuro review, i seen him yesterday and he done all the normal office neuro testing, pinprick sensation, coldness senstaion, the pin scratch test, tuning fork, strength and even reflexes, he said they were all perfectly normal
He still wants to see me again in another 2 years time, not that he expects any deterioration as long as i keep those blood sugars within normal ranges and not to relax to much now as when your going along good, it's easy to slip back into the old bad habits again, as he said the neuropathy can be still lurking in the back ground ready to strike back again if given a chance to do so, i won't give it a chance though, there is no way known

best wishes to all

You are an inspiration to many of us here, demonstrating what
one can do for oneself to maintain health.

You are MY inspiration. I am on the same journey. I don't want my diabetic neuropathy to come back EVER AGAIN!!!

Here's hoping.

Take care,

Wonderful! Congrats!

Wow! That is very cool! I sure wish I would have waited before having supposed "neuroma surgery". But, I can certainly prevent it from getting worse. Good for YOU!

GREAT NEWS !!
I'm very happy for you, Brian.
I hope that this doesn't mean you'll not be lurking
around here, now.
Don't go away, you have much input for those
who need your experience and advice.
Especially your successful magnet therapy.
Stick around, mate !
OK?

And it's always have an example of one whose neuropathy did not just get progressively worse--too few doctors provide any other prognosis.

Thanks everyone, there is no question in my mind that my current nerve health has a lot to do with all the great advise & support i was given in the begining & during my PN journey by the some of the very same people who answered this post, for which i am for ever greatfull to...... and thanks Bob for your kind words but i certainly won't be going away from this forum, [ not getting rid of me that easy, mate ] it has been my rock for many years and i will continue to visit here as much as possible.
