The Neuropathy summit

"Announcing the 2010 Neuropathy Summit in Washington, D.C.!
With peripheral neuropathy affecting over 20 Million Americans, it’s a puzzle why this disease still remains one of the least recognized epidemics in the U.S. today. Our groundbreaking 2010 Neuropathy Summit is your opportunity to help change this dynamic. The Neuropathy Association is proud to be hosting this first of its kind 2010 Neuropathy Summit, which features back-to-back patient and physician conferences in Washington, D.C. on December 3-5, 2010.
As a neuropathy patient, caregiver, family member, or physician, the 2010 Neuropathy Summit offers you a rare opportunity to participate on a national level along with health care professionals, clinical researchers, policy makers and many other industry representatives. Together, we can begin to advance our understanding of neuropathy, create momentum for better patient treatments, and, ultimately, cures.
Everyone who’s concerned about improving health care and the quality of life for neuropathy patients should plan on attending."

Neuropathy Advocate and Patient Update

Hi everyone, I got to thanking about my life changes since I was dx. I now love helping others with there neuropathy. I belong to The Neuropathy Association. I went to Las Vegas to support my friend Michelle from the Alliance for Plasma Therapy. It was a great successful fund raiser. Last June I was able to go to Sacramento for a Neuropathy Action Day and it to was a huge success. Now this coming Dec 3- 5. I will be able to go to Washington D.C. for a Neuropathy Summit where Doctors and Patients alike to meet together and co-mingle and share
each other's thought and opinions.

In 2008 I started up a neuropathy support group in Murrietta, Calif. and then another in Palm Springs, Calif. Where we enjoy over 60 members. I feel its time to start another group and I've decided on the Loma Linda Univ. Medical school and hospital area. We will be able to use a room at the univ. My neurologist works out of the university medical center and that was a big plus.

Thank you,
David Hines
Patient and Advocate
