Have you ever stood up all night long and wished
that someone had chopped off your hands because of severe
pain, numbness and tingling to your hands and fingers due to a
condition called "diabetic neuropathy"?.
If you have,
you are not alone...Thousands or perhaps tens of
thousands or more have suffered the same symptoms I have
described. They woke up suddenly from their sleep in the
middle of the night or very early in the morning crying
because of the intense pain that they feel to their fingers,
hands and forearms, and often one arm is worse than
the other.
"Oh my God, when will this
ever end......", sufferers often asked in
desperation?
Physicians and other health care providers
often prescribe antiseizure medications, tricyclic
antidepressants, lidocaine patch, and other strong medications
that may produce serious side effects, including addiction to
treat the painful symptoms.
One treatment method that I
have never read in medical texbooks is a pair of good fitting
leather gloves. Use them at night when you go to bed and they
can be very effective. It is simple and cheap and there are no
side effects.
We wish you
well.
