@logman1, I think it's great that you are searching for answers and learning as much as you can about your condition. I've been labeled pre-diabetic for most of my adult life. I have often wondered if it played a part in my neuropathy diagnosis. Since my diagnosis in 2016 I have continued to search for things I can do to help with my symptoms which are mostly numbness. Mine took place over 20+ years but I know others have had symptoms crop up quickly.

I've always been overweight and struggled for many yeas. My goal was to get healthier to hopefully lessen the neuropathy symptoms and lose weight to help with other health issues.
A few years ago I read a health blog by @LeeAase and it helped me with my struggle. Lee shared my story on his blog here - https://www.social-media-university-global.org/2020/08/john-bishops-journey/.

I really enjoyed this video and learned a little at the same time.
