question: I ve had NEPHROPATHY for 20+YEARS. I also was diagnosed with CHARCOT about 14-15 years ago. I NOW am experiencing different problems DAILY. I have terrible pains stepping down on the BALL of my feet like directly stepping on a nerve. Also my ANKLES not always BOTH seem to extremely SORE & at times seem to DROP a small distance. I sure a cane in my apt. & use a scooter when I go out for about 15 years. I wore support socks for approx. 20 yrs. due to DIABETES. I recently LOST about 90 LBS & LOST the DIABETES. I still check my SUGAR & check it twice a day & watch my DIET. Have you suggestion that may HELP ? THANKS Dave
