Neuropathy is a complex symptom usually with an underlying disorder. There are many possible causes;
Diabetes
Chemotherapy

Immune and auto immune disorders

Have you discussed with primary care and determined what causes yours and then you might be on a path to see a specialist, get relief

My primary care dr threw her hands up in the air and literally said" I do not know anything else to tell you to do"!! None of these things apply! I was really sick with Covid when I woke up in the middle of the night screaming with leg pain!!

Excessive doses of Statins have caused my Neuropathy, as I had a serious reaction to 40mg of Lipitor and the doctor in Australia Dr Rajappa increased the dose to 40mg of Crestor.
I was a low-risk patient and should not have been prescribed such doses with my moderate cholesterol reading.
