Welcome @bamba, Light headedness and dizziness can be symptoms for some types of neuropathy but they can also be symptoms of medications used to treat neuropathy from what I've read.

"Signs and symptoms of autonomic neuropathy depend on which nerves are damaged. They might include: Dizziness and fainting when standing, caused by a sudden drop in blood pressure."

There are some discussions available where others have shared their experience with similar symptoms. Here is a link to the list of discussion and comments - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/?search=neuropathy+%2Blightheaded+%2Bdizziness

Did your neurologist give you a specific diagnosis for the type of neuropathy?

Thank you for such a quick response. I do not have autonomic neuropathy. No heart problems. Also recently had cat scan and mri of brain. I just wish my doctors would come up with a treatment that would give me some relief and improve the quality of my life. I keep researching, hoping to find solutions. Very frustrated and discouraged but not giving up. Thanks for your input.
