text:  My name is Mike. I've been active my entire life. I'm 74 years old now. A few years ago, I started experiencing a loss of feeling in my feet, starting at the toes and working its way back to the balls of my feet and the arch of my foot. I was in so much pain, I couldn't get to the mailbox and back. It was just destroying my life. My medical doctor told me my options were medication, amputation, or a wheelchair, which wasn't an option for me.
