I think your reaction was very normal. We all have to deal with our diagnosis in our own way, no matter what disease we are going to fight. If it’s a new diagnosis which you find out is in curable as in neuropathy it becomes a pretty devastating affair with so many reactions delayed or immediate presenting in stages…I was just so pissed off at first then moved onto finding a cure, reading everything I could on google, searching tirelessly for a cure that just isn’t there …eventually comes acceptance but not without a big fight in my case. I look back on great physical activities and adventures I had with much appreciation …Now I’m just looking at tips to managing pain, live life as best I can, while my legs die and go numb from the toes up and hoping that in my lifetime a cure will be found. This diagnosis of neuropathy and living with it, is by far the biggest challenge in my life and I’ve had a few …..All the best with acceptance and coping in the days and years ahead ..
