NOTE: This addition to the description is being added due to the possibility of bogus reviews implying that only one type of peripheral neuropathy is addressed within this book. While the far-most major cause is addressed, being that of diabetes and pre-diabetic conditions (metabolic syndromes), causes addressed also include: neuropathies affecting sensory, motor and autonomic nerves, polyneuropathy and mono-neuropathy, thyroid disease neuropathies, peripheral neuropathies of autoimmune and systemic diseases (e.g. Lupus, Celiac Disease, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Sjogren's Syndrome, Peripheral Artery Disease), peripheral neuropathy of viral cause, also known as "Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy" (e.g. Cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr, Varicella Zoster, Hepatitis Viruses A, B, C, D, and E, Campylobacter Jejuni). Additionally, a chapter is dedicated to nutritional deficiencies -- literally from A to Z, that cause or contribute to neuropathies. Some estimates by medical research groups state that up to 20 million Americans suffer from some form of peripheral neuropathy (PN) and this number is much higher when worldwide statistics are considered. A major reason for the rise in incidence for these conditions of damage to the nerves in the body that results in pain and dysfunction in them is the increase in cases of diabetes and pre-diabetic syndromes. There are many other causes of PN however, including old age, viral infections, nutritional deficiencies, various autoimmune diseases, dysfunction of the arterial system (blood circulation) and drug-use of both prescribed types and varieties of illegal drugs. Within the chapters of this book, I address the types of symptoms involved in PN diseases, the types of nerves that can be affected and treatments that are administered to treat underlying causes of PN and to directly address its symptoms. NOTE: This book is approximately 5,779 words in length. It is not an extensive medical journal but rather contains aspects of information on the subject that most laypersons would be seeking.
