When your feet are numb and unable to feel what's under them, it can be unnerving to step on something and cut through your foot without realizing it. Then looking around to see where in the world that blood is coming from....been there done that, not going to leave my feet unprotected again. I guess it just depends on your perspective and how well you take care of your feet.

I am amazed each time I read a post and realize I’m not alone with experiencing this unknown neuropathy. I too have lived, in 5 short years, with seeing blood across floors in my house and taking time to realize it was coming from my toe.. or taking socks off and seeing a big blood stain. I saw other posts about not feeling feet on brake and gas pedals, fears that driving has us more focused on foot position than looking at the road.
The membership here is hitting on so many common experiences with me, and some experiences that are thankfully not in common with me. I appreciate learning as much as I have from folks in this forum, those cheering us and trying to keep us positive, and you and the other mentors for trying to keep topics organized and providing links to helpful resources.
Thanks so much for your help and of course feel free to move post to best position! Debbie
