Neuropathy: Numbness only, no pain

John - just noticed a post you did where you mentioned the hammer toes. In 2016 I had gone to the University of PA Hospital, they have a neurologist there who specializes is inherited PN. Just one of the many things I' ve gone through to determine cause of my non-diabetic neuropathy. He checked my blood work for Charcot Marie Tooth and he kept asking me more than once about any family member with hammer toes, as you know, a symptom of CMT. Interesting, I had a grandmother who had hammer toes each foot. The blood work came back with what he called weak outside markers but not strong enough to cause my PN.

Very interesting to me as I did not know there were neurologists that specialized in inherited PN. My father and one sister also had PN.
