Hi John, hoping you can help.
I am living in a very small, 10K population, regional town in Far North tropical Qld Australia. Virtually no allied health services within 2.5 hrs drive. I've been living with type 2 diabetes 10yrs, & suffering with associated foot neuropathy 5+ yrs. Is there an org in Aus I can contact to help ??

Hi @aussiefrankie, You mentioned having type 2 diabetes. Just wondering if your diabetes might be the cause of your neuropathy. My sister had issues with her feet before she passed and she also had type 2 diabetes. Living in small remote areas does make it more difficult for healthcare access. There is no cure for neuropathy, so we end up having to try and find something that provides relief for our symptoms.

Have you done any research on diabetic neuropathy? Here's a webinar you might find helpful:
