Over 100 Types Of Neuropathy - A Hypochondriac's Lexicon

Today's post from rightdiagnosis.com (see link below) is something that many readers have asked for and that is a list of neuropathy types. You often hear or read that there are over 100 types of neuropathy but it's rare to see them all in one long list. Even this list misses one or two but it just goes to show what a complex range of diseases neuropathy includes. Maybe not so surprising if you picture an image of the nervous system and its rail and road map-like connections - you can imagine how many places there are in the body where this can go wrong. This also explains why it's so very difficult to treat. Tons of information here. By following the links you will get more explanation of each individual condition but beware the hypochondriac's trap - you're not suffering from all of them!! Also remember, the symptoms cross over at many points, so may be the same for any number of neuropathy types.
