The neuropathy is one of the hardest things to deal with as I also have what my neurologist calls "painful diabetic neuropathy" with horrific pains! I wish I had listened to docs may back when...
Oh yes, I know that feel like wax and look like wax thing. I have been told
MARATHONS are over and so is cold weather running. It was 38 when the race began and 41 when we were finished. I had on my special socks, sock liners and special inner soles. If it was too cold, Reynauds would have progressed and it did not. For the most part, I do listen to the Dr.s. You may argue It doesn't sound like it, but I've made major changes. It's nothing to play with.

It (the neuropathy) has faded to a bearable level now and I'm hoping its about done. I know no pain like that. Sorry I was whiny.
