Neuropathy Symptoms and Signs

A feeling of weakness in the muscles. The brain is no longer able to control the limbs correctly as the motor nerves are progressively damaged by the disease. A person may experience this as simple weakness in the muscles, or else, as an inability to coordinate the body when conducting movements that need to be precise. A simple gesture that you have used all your life might become all but impossible to execute. You may be unable to do up the buttons on a garment, or pick up a reasonably heavy bag. An older person might attribute this weakness or this lack of coordination to simply growing older and so the condition might remain undiagnosed for some time.
