The large toe on my left foot is numb most of the time, and at times painful. I am waking
up night with my hands, feet, arms, and legs tingling. My biggest fear is of POEMS Syndrome, which my father succummed to in August 2005 after 8 painful years. Can POEMS be hereditary? Should I see my primary care doctor or endo with my concerns? I am scared o death but have not mentioned anything to my husband or mom because I don't want to alarm them unnecessarily.
