My symptoms came on slowly. It started with the feeling there was a thread or string around my big toe. I had chemo about 15 years ago and somehow I got the impression that you either got neuropathy in your feet right away or it could start 10-15 years afterwards. My neurologist is not aware of this happening. He says my neuropathy is not from chemo or diabetes. I am a pre-diabetic. I am still in the testing stage --26 vials of blood sent off to have 13 tests performed by a couple well know medical facilities. Just completed today EMG testing for my upper body. Lower body was done a couple weeks ago. My legs are far worse than my arms. The end of November all the tests and blood work should be evaluated and at that appointment I hopefully will find out more, what I have, the known cause and what they can do about it to stop or slow down the progression. Will post a summary of that appt then.
