Weekend Doctor: Peripheral neuropathy

By Matthew Nienberg, PA-C
Pain Management, Blanchard Valley Pain Management

Have you felt burning and stinging in your feet that just will not go away? What about tingling, numbness or an inability to feel hot or cold sensations? If these symptoms sound familiar, and you are a patient with type 1 or type 2 diabetes, you may be experiencing symptoms associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. 

Diabetic neuropathy is nerve damage, typically starting in the toes and feet, caused by elevated blood sugar levels. While symptoms are most commonly reported in the toes and feet, as the disease progresses, they may be experienced further up the legs and into the hands. While symptoms for some can be mild, others may report severe pain and loss of function. ▶︎

Letter: Lifesaving work by Bluffton Safety Services

A letter in support of the proposed Municipal Income Tax for the Village of Bluffton for raising revenue for the capital needs and operations of the Safety Services Departments.

Mother’s Day 2023 was a beautiful day. We were just returning from spending time with my mother and I asked Dan to drop me off at Bluffton University’s football field.  My cousin’s son was playing soccer there (yes, on Mother’s Day!), and I was determined not to miss a game that was so close to our home.  After the game, my cousin’s husband offered to drop me off at home. I refused as it was a short walk and sunny. As I walked up our road, I could see our neighbor Dan Gray sitting outside. Their white home seemed to highlight his red shirt to me. ▶︎
