"Neuropathic osteoarthropathy, also known as Charcot joint (often "Charcot foot"), refers to progressive degeneration of a weight bearing joint, a process marked by bony destruction, bone resorption, and eventual deformity. Onset is usually insidious.
If this pathological process continues unchecked, it could result in joint deformity, ulceration and/or superinfection, loss of function, and in the worst case scenario: amputation or death. Early identification of joint changes is the best way to limit morbidity."

I am a diabetic and take quite a few supplements already. Fish Oil, Vit D, ALA, CLA, Evening Primrose Oil, to name a few
Many thanks for any suggestions."
