                        My husband has diabetic neuropathy, and very damaged peripheral nerves.  For the last couple of weeks  he has been in great pain in his bones, joints, and a very severe headache.  No pain killers seem to be making a difference.  He seems to be losing strength in general, and he seems to have a pain round the kidney area (both sides)   The doc says it is muscular.    Question --  does the diabetic neuropathy attack every area of the body?   Could these symptoms all be a part of the same disease?.   I worry that everything is put down to the diabetis, when it could be something else.   Any help appreciated    Anne Himmons  (United Kingdom)
