I have Perhiperal Artery Disease and Neuropathy where is support?
A high percentage of those with Neuropathy, I believe, also suffer from Peripheral Artery Disease. One in 20 Americans over 60 have PAD. Since the Mayo Clinic Forum does not have an informational support group on PAD, join us for one of the best worldwide informational support groups for PAD...FacebookPeripheral Artery Disease (PAD) Walking, Exercise and Wellness Support
Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Neuropathy Support Group.

I also have PAD. I have had two procedures in my left leg. Currently my right leg is more painful when walking than my left. Walking a short distance becomes a painful ordeal. The pain is in the calves. I am a Lawn Bowler and when it's hot I experience burning soles; just like standing on a bed of nails. I have woken up not being able to feel my right foot from toes to ankle. I have to give up Lawn Bowling since the pain is getting the better of me. Anyone have any suggestions?
