James, do you have any diabetes or prediabetes that could cause the neuropathy? The reason I ask is that I was not aware there was such a thing with diabetes when my husband was diagnosed, and most people I have met since do not know that diabetes can cause such a condition which is relieved by diet change and exercise. My doctor never mentioned it to me. My husband's doctor told him to eat beef since he didn't like chicken so he ate one and a half pounds of prime rib a day in restaurants. It was too much of a good thing, of course and his foot went numb and he could barely walk before he died of the cancer in his spine and other conditions. Dorisena
