What are some good exercises that can be done for people with peripheral neuropathy?
I would try to rest your eyes as often as possible. Do not strain your eyes to see. If you do not have any sight of vision along the sides, I would recommend turning your head to that spot and having a direct line of vision instead of peripheral.
How does diabetic neuropathy affect ones daily life?
I am a 36 year old female that has an idiopathic peripheral neuropathy. I have had this disease since 1999. Not only is this disease physically draining it is mentally draining as well. It causes ulcers, blisters, toenail loss, chronic pain, and for me depression. I can no longer work because I can't stand or sit for long periods of time..what job does that leave? The pain is very draining, especially at night. The side effects from medications aren't any walk in the park either. And the questions...i.e. how can you have pain if you can't feel your feet!!! Uggg, that gets old. The book Numb Toes anc Aching Soles helped me and my neurologist did too. Good luck to anyone suffering from any type of neuropathy.

What is the affect of high blood sugar and the kidneys and capillaries?
High blood sugar makes the blood an oxidizing agent, so it slowly oxidizes (burns) the tissues it contacts. Over a few months, persistent high blood sugar will burn the capillaries causing Diabetic Angiopathy. This in turn slowly kills off peripheral nerves (Diabetic Neuropathy), and then over the years, the glomeruli of the kidneys (Diabetic Nephropathy). Neuropathy can result in lost feet, and Nephropathy can result in total kidney failure, so both should be avoided assiduously by keeping blood sugar levels low. Just how low is currently the subject of debate but a good starting point in your research could be made by using the page links, further down this page, listed under Related Links.
