Today's post from YouTube (see link below) is a good introductory video to neuropathy. Interesting and simply explained, it's worth viewing for both newcomers and experienced patients. Of course, it doesn't cover all the bases but provides a surprising amount of information in ten minutes and stimulates further research and investigation.
