We have started a neuropathy group as a sub-category of Chronic Pain… http://dailystrength.org/groups/ne...

We have over 30 images and 75+ resource links posted now!

I think you’ll find this to be a great resource as it helps explains the types of neuropathy / nerve damage, what a normal nerves looks like vs compressed, sheath loss, disconnection and degeneration. The graphics include everything from spinal cord injuries to eye, ear, foot, hand damage and everything in between. The links have pain charts, organizations and more

This topic does NOT appear in the general DS category and “Types of Support Groups” since it is a sub-group, nor can it be searched and found under DS keyword search, so we ask that you pass this onto those in your friends list.

We are still trying to get a neuropathy main GROUP of our own through DS but until then… If you found this to be helpful please pass the word onto Doug at DS and let him know that we should have a group of our own. This is a HUGE topic and it can stand all on it’s own, neuropathy is not just for diabetes patients!

Looking forward to seeing you and having you join in.
