OMG!! Me too! Not diabetic. Have sfn. numbness, pain, cramps, the whole freakin shebang. I am 54. My shoes are also very not fashionable, so much so that they have earned the nickname 'frankenboots'. They are new balance that also have cushioning and are sized to fit orthotics as well

I have had no pain. For the cramping in my legs, I stretch and try to be active but find I cannot walk as fast as others! I also wear NB, Ryka, Easy Spirit, anything with lots of cushioning plus the orthotics.
The odd thing about this neuropathy is that I did not even know I had it until I was in my early 50's. My podiatrist thought it was plantar fasciatis (sp) hence the wearing of orthotics. The numbness started being apparent about 3 or 4 years ago and just progresses I guess. Bummer.
