Are you worried about the numbness, tingling or loss of strength in your fingers and toes?
Are you feeling burning, stabbing or shooting pain which limits your ability to exercise and do all the things that used to keep you active?
Are you experiencing muscle weakness that also triggers balance and coordination problems, making you afraid of falling?
Take this short quiz to find out if
undiagnosed neuropathy could be to blame!
While it's tempting to blame your symptoms on neuropathy, there's many other conditions with very similar symptoms such as rheumatoid arthritis, vitamin B12 deficiency, multiple sclerosis, pinched nerves or thyroid disorders. That's why it's critical to properly identify the root cause of your symptoms by a neuropathy specialist trained in functional neurology.
In the early stages, neuropathy typically leads to a barely noticeable loss of function that has patients ignoring the slight tingling, numbness or burning sensation until much more serious damage has occurred. It is important to seek early & proper diagnosis and treatment to manage the symptoms and prevent progression of this debilitating condition.
While diabetes is one of the most frequent causes of neuropathy, there are many other potential causes including injuries, autoimmune diseases, toxin exposure, food reactivities, spinal stenosis, disc herniation & degenerative discs as well as poor circulation. Without understanding the root cause, it's going to be next to impossible to effectively resolve your condition.
