Bad news in a good form.... by W. Bensburg  4 Stars
April 24, 2008
For those with peripheral neuropathy, this book will give some hope -- but not too much. It's honest, which of course is bad news for those afflicted. It will give you many angles of treatment. Who knows? Maybe you'll get one that will work for you.

GREAT BOOK! by Bobbi Barron (Denver, CO) 5 Stars
March 31, 2007
My daughter has Peripheral Neuropathy which was caused from CHEMO following treatment for breast cancer. This book, "Numb Toes and Aching Soles," written by John Senneff, is the first book that she says, "tells it like it is."
The book gives accurate descriptions of the various levels and types of pain...from minor to excruciating pain...that can be experienced by the sufferers of Peripheral Neuropathy.
It also describes the various medicines that may help reduce, or completely stop the pain, including Opiate drugs, like Fentynl, Methadone, etc. He accurately points out that usually, only Specialized Pain Doctors are not afraid to dispense them.
(Note: One new medicine that came out after his book was published, is "Lyrica" which seems to help some PN sufferers find relief.)
It should be noted that John Senneff, copes with Peripheral Neuropathy himself, and knows what it is like to deal with it. He is not a doctor, but he himself was looking for answers, and did extensive research on the subject before publishing his book. The book is written in easy to understand language.
I HIGHLY RECCOMMEND THIS BOOK for anyone seeking helpful information about Peripheral Neuropathy...including those in the medical field who truly wish to help their patients find relief from this painful malady.
