Welcome @justbob, While you wait for @ray666 to respond, you might find these discussions he started helpful on his neuropathy journey.

Do you mind sharing a little more about the symptoms you have along with the diagnosis of peripheral polyneuropathy?

Hi John,
Sure. Bilateral foot numbness and some tingling, no pain per se, no weakness, no balance issues.
I started the diagnostic journey thinking that it was possibly lumbar related given that a recent MRI showed 4 herniated discs. Nobody seems to care much about that. And maybe rightfully so given that my symptoms are bilateral.
No one thus far has suggested a peripheral artery disease test. But then again, PAD appears to have differing symptoms.
Thanks for the recommended links...I will check them out.
Bob
