How To Manage Neuropathy With Severe Pain, Constipation, Fatigue And Mobility?

Dear Doctor, My dad is suffering so much from a neuropathy. He had this disease 15 years ago, got treated for it and he was ok. But since 1 year, this disease came back and it is getting worse and worse. He has now pbm with digestion, constipation, he is very tired,and he has lost 7 kilos in 3 weeks. And the worst thing is that he lost the motricity of his right leg! He is very weak and since 8 months the only treatment he s been having is 2 injections of vitamin b1&6 every week! But this just does not work. He doesn t eat and the pains have made his life so hard. We live in New Caledonia, and not only this disease is not wellknown but we have just 1 neurologist. So i would love him to have a second advice from you, and also is it possible to get an appointment with you? We have relatives in Sydney and one of my cousins works for the hospitals in Sydney so we could manage to be there whenever you could receive him. Many thanks in advance for you response Kind Regards, Stephanie Watt
