I'm posing a question regarding symptoms experienced by a close family member who has PN... which kind of neuropathy he has has not been determined even though a significant amount of time has been spent trying to figure it out. First of all ... he has Type 2 diabetes, has had to have a stent implanted, gets shots in the eyes to prevent blindness, the neuropathy has started to affect bladder and all in all has made for a very painful result in the last 2 years. Some background - mother has neuropathy although evidently as a result of chemotherapy. He has recently developed a patch of skin on his inner ankle that is rough, scaly and very painful. He describes it as like a bad burn. Can't touch it the sheets when trying to sleep. The patch is about 7 inches long by 2 inches wide and as if the neuropathy wasn't enough - now this. Anyone else have anything similar happening in conjunction w/PN?
