Menopause and Neurapothy

Posted by boo55 @boo55, Mar 28, 2019

Hi,
Since around 2015 I have felt some numbness in my feet. BAM! Post menopause, Around Fall of 2019. Terrible numbness in toes and calves with some pain and a diagnosis of small fiber neuropathy. Has anyone else experienced something similar ? Looking for correlations.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Neuropathy Support Group.

I love PubMed as a source. Very interesting article. I am 62 and have osteoporosis. In 2015, I was in a serious MVA, and now both of my hip labrums are cadaver part. I would also like to replace a missing molar, which means a bone graft. Cadaver number three. I am a walking, talking, thinking, test subject.

I would like to find a support group for people, like myself, who are held together with cadaver parts.

2009 I had a total hysterectomy in my 30s for Ovarian Cancer. Needless to say welcome to instantaneous menopause. On the positive side no cancer. Negative welcome to menopause.

When my periods stopped the neuropathy started. I even suggested that menopause might be causing it. Of course my neurologist doesn't suspect that, but I always have. I'm 6 years in and the neuropathy seems to be progressing. I brought this up on a thread on FB and there were several women that experienced the same thing with menopause. Now I'm thinking of joining a menopause support group just to pose this question.
