Your neuropathy symptoms are directly related to your diabetes and sugar intake. If you control your carbs very closely, eat little of them, your feet symptoms will probably lessen naturally. Diabetes is the number one cause of neuropathy. Control sugar, and you will control neuropathy. I am not diabetic. My neuro doc is still trying to figure out why I have it. I had a lumpectomy a year ago, and within 3 weeks after surgery, it started. All of this is not much fun, that is for sure. By the way, to change to a happy topic...I saw you taught English lit. I taught English as a Second Language, but I belong to a book club and like reading a lot. However, I do read in spurts. The ladies in my book club have been meeting for at least 20 years. We are all retired teachers and aides, and we spend more time chatting than discussing books. We are so bad!!!! We love eachother a lot, needless to say! Anyway, good luck with those feet. Neuropathy hurts a lot. Keep in touch.....Lori R.
