I, too, am in the non-diabetic group. In fact, my neuropathy has yet to be connected to any underlying symptoms. Some autoimmune diseases like RA, lupus and others have been ruled out. I do not have numbness--mostly tingling in my feet and shins and sometimes a rope burn feel in my arms--that comes and goes. Physical therapy has been great for me--I had some muscle wasting so I am enjoying the challenge of trying to rebuild my body. I sometimes get a bit of fatigue and any soreness--which is not painful--I attribute this to my body trying to rise to the challenges. If you have any ideas about anti-inflammatory foods I am all ears. I am cutting back on sugar and some dairy. All in all, my life has changed and I, like you, am trying to cope.
