Neuropathy

This really sucks Grant. Is there any change in diet or something that can help with the diabetes and it's affects?

Sorry to hear you are having another negative thing impacting your life and your health. I sure hope things turn
around for you and quick!
 
I think what I have is nerve damage, not muscle pain.

You'll notice how the areas I mentioned to rub the tiger balm are nerve clusters and nerve centres. You don't have pain, per se, in the areas of your body where you "feel" the pain, rather the sensory neurons connect through various neural networks through the brainstem into your brain which then tells your mind where you feel the pain.

You may have seen videos of open skull surgery where they do neural testing; by stimulating neurons in the brain with electrodes neurologists can make you smell, hear, feel, remember various things - famously, a Jennifer Aniston "neuron" was stimulated in a patients brain. Our body is a totally connected machine, a factor often neglected by western medical approaches (less so nowadays than a decade or two ago).

Give it a go, Wav - what have you got to lose? You will be pleasantly surprised; I am not suggesting tiger balm for muscle pain relief, but relief of nerve bundles to help your homeostatic balance better manage the localized pain you are feeling.
 
uhm.... I have a "stimulated" Jennifer Anniston .,...uhm "neuron" ;) ;) all the time :)

Say Grump --- do you have her number by Chance?????

no all BS aside--- I had "shoulder pain" for years -- was bitching about it at dinner with a freind who was a tennis pro-- she said -- oh thats tennis elbow ----UHM--- no its my SHOULDER---
but sure as SHITE -- I wore an elbow brace for a week --- cured -- NO SHOULDER PAIN -- the "pinch" was in the elbow -- but that didnt "hurt " at all -- the PAIN was felt further up the arm in the shoulder--
I have sciatic nerve issues the back of my left leg hurts---- hurts RIGHT NOW--- but-- its NOT my leg at all -- its the NERVE being pinched in my spine---as a result of 2 herniated discs---and a tilted sacrum-- the body is a weird thing

PM me Jennifer's number Grump -- thanks ;)
