@dckuke My neuropathy began in the balls and heels of my feet. A year or so ago my toes started hurting, then the pain moved to the top of my feet, and most recently moved up to my ankles. It's a burning pain. It's strange that even though my feet hurt, they're also numb. And the numbness doesn't include being numb to painful stimuli. I have a blanket lifter so the sheet and blankets don't touch my feet. Shoes have been an issue for a long time, but until a few months ago I could wear socks as long as they're loose. Now I have pain from socks, which is ok in the house, but I can't walk without socks and shoes.
I haven't yet felt pain anywhere else. Did it start for you in just one area and then spread? Did it start out with numbness and tingling? The one thing I've learned is that neuropathy progresses differently with each person.
