Hi folks,


IF you're already suffering neuropathy in extremeties as
well as other foot and leg problems as a complication of
your diabetes you might want to read the article in the
NOvember 2011 Braille MOnitor.  tHey discuss a little known
condition whose existence is not widely known in the medical community. 
You might wish to have a look at it and point
your primary care doc toward information regarding the
condition, as prompt action may just enable you to keep a
limb.

The braille monitor in question was hatched into the ep-fdn
ep-mag file echo as brlm1111.zip, or can be found at
www.nfb.org I'm sure.

I would quote from it, but might miss something of potential importance,
and don't have permission to reproduce here in
its entirety, so would rather point you to the article.



Regards,
           Richard
