Help my rotti is hurt!!!!

I have been reading about distal sensorimotor polyneuropathy. My dog is in a lot of pain... He goes to the vet this evening but would like to go with knowledge in hand about what could possibly be wrong... He has been limping on front right foot for a few days and now finds it difficult to move at all... He has no wounds or sores on his leg.He has a hot spot on his nub (tail) that may or may not have anything to do with this but it seems quite raw... Anyone know about this disease mentioned above. I have read write ups about it but it is not written in"English" lol... Too technical for me... Please help ... My Big boy is 5 yrs old 125lbs and has shown some history of hip problems from time to time.... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

my 6 month old rotti/german shep been limping been told by vets he will have to have a bone srap to see if its something to do with blisters in the cartilidge! bone scrap.
