Based on my understanding, a Morton's neuroma is a thickening of the tissue in the nerve that runs between the metatarsal bones, in response to continual irritation. It gets inflamed and causes pretty significant pain, very similar to a stress fracture. Neuropathy is an actual degeneration of the nerve tissue, frequently caused by diabetes. See your doctor if you suspect you have either. While you're at it, ask him, or her, or it, if Valtrex is right for you! :-)
