It truly is a journey as you say, pbBrown. Glad to learn of your positive news. I also dropped weight--went from 100 to 95 but am now back at 98. I tested positive for celiac disease--which is autoimmune--and can cause peripheral neuropathy--which I have. Like you, I have made dietary and some lifestyle adjustments. I now am gluten-free in terms of diet and I am working on keeping foods with added sugars out of my gut. My toes are a bit numb, I never had pain and the tingling is alot less. Gabapentin and Rx drugs are not the answer for everyone. Unfortunately, these medications are vastly prescribed these days.
