I have recently developed neuropathy across both soles of my feet (before, it was more localised). I havent notified my doctor or the DVLA as it's fairly mild but I am attracted to doorframes more frequently. I have slow burn SPMS. I'm not sure whether to keep this to myself or do the honourable thi...
