Hi I think that behind my toes in my feet, there is no feeling? I was told by my PCP that as one adds years to ones life this happens to some folks, my feet are a long ways from my heart, so as individuals age sensations in the feet and toes can be affected, has any one else had this happen????

Ellen, you mention that you have numbness behind your toes. Do you also have pain? Have you been diagnosed with neuropathy?

Hi there. So you are experiencing numbness in your feet and toes? There is an excellent discussion ongoing in the neuropathy group regarding numbness and peripheral neuropathy (PN). Here is the link, you might find some of the posts very interesting:

John Bishop @johnbishop started that discussion. He is suffering from numbness in both feet. You can read his story there and what he has been doing to help his situation. You will also find others who have chimed in about their numbness as well. Give it a look. And by the way, welcome. This forum is a great place to gain first hand info from others and get support from other sufferers like yourself. Hope you gain the insights you are seeking.
Best to you, Hank
