My hands were extremely painful in cold weather for a few winters after
coming out of Korea, but this problem went away with time.

I
was in Korea Aug 50 - July 51. My combat boots provided little protection from
the cold, but I never went as far as frostbite, as far as I know. I have now,
for two or three years been suffering from foot neuropathy that, without
medication and sometimes with medication hurts like hell. I came away with
malaria, and my wild life style brought me down about 10 years ago with
diabetes and high BP. If I can be more helpful, let me
know.

Does anyone know of cases, other than mine,
concerning frost bite leading to Neuropathy, in the area north and west of
Pusan during the Korean War in the winter there?
