Caring for Neuropathy Sufferers

Today's video is a powerful reminder that neuropathy can turn out to be anything but a solo problem. It may well prove to be an even bigger problem in the future, for people with HIV and neuropathy, who live alone and are living longer. Nobody wants to become dependent on other people but the reality is that neuropathy can ruthlessly rob you of your independence and then what do you do? The need for support systems in these circumstances may well prove to be one of the biggest challenges facing health and social organisations in the coming years.
