Feel free to PM me with anything. I'll try to help. The MGH neurology forum has some good info on a variety of neurological conditions including his. BrainTalk Communities - Powered by vBulletin
Just Lucky ~ thanks for the link to this site. I browsed through it a bit a found a reference to connections between glutin intolerance and peripheral neuropathy. While I am pretty certain that Mike's doctor must have included gluten sensitivity in the initial battery of tests that he went through when he first developed peripheral neuropathy, I'm wondering if it will show any signs of improvement now that he's on the South Beach diet and has removed (temporarily) all wheat products from his meals. Only time will tell, but I've told him to let me know if he noticed that his feet and legs seem to be getting better.
