Do GP's routinely blame Perip Neuro on alcohol?

Hello
I have idiopathic NP. The doctors all asked about alcohol usage when I was getting diagnosed so I guess there can be a correlation. In my case, I drink about 5-6 servings of alcohol about once a month. I do notice a definite increase in burning/pain in my feet the next day but goes back to more normal levels by the 2nd day.

Seems if alcohol use causes a reaction post have a few, this is something to totally avoid. It is well known alcohol is not a good thing to consume for anyone. The healthcare pros routinely say 1 drink a day. Hardly worth the risk. Try no more drinking before it gets worse.
