    "Dr. Brock thought I had neuropathy nerve damage in my big toe or it was my my neuropathy that was causing my issue. And I went to a neurologist and it is not at all caused by neuropathy. So now this other the neuropathy. The neurologist is sending me for an MRI. which Dr. Brock only gave me x-rays. So hopefully I can get to the bottom of it, but it is not neuropathy causing my issue as of now until I have my MRI, which is going to be today or tonight at 7.30 at Finley. Thank you. Dr. Brock is a nice guy."
