Jay, I am so sorry for everything that you are going through. Yes, It is true we all are different when it comes to this disease, but one thing I have come across quite a lot on the net is the treatment of patients by many neurologists. Once they find out that it's neuropathy, especially when the cause is unknown, many patients feel tossed aside. I know I did. My primary doctor actually said he was disappointed in my neurologist behavior, and said, "I'm so sorry" before setting me up with another referral. My neurologist wasn't a mean man, Just uninterested and disconnected once he did his tests. I realize there are exceptions, and there are some very good doctors out there, but since I have been stricken with this and have talked to other neuropathy sufferers on the net, I find it often very common to be treated in such a matter.
