My name is Paul. I was diagnosed with neuropathy back in 2015 at the Mayo Clinic. I have been dealing with balance issues, nerve pain in both legs and arm for the pass 8 years. The issues are continuing to progress with very little relief. Now I'm starting to have stomach pains and digestive issues. A doctor told me that it could be due to my neuropathy. I was wondering if anyone else is having this issue as well.

Hi Paul @pspencer2500, Welcome to Connect. I don't think you are alone with a lot of the symptoms you mentioned. @fisbo, @mcd123 and @rpenn have mentioned digestive issues with neuropathy and may have some information to share.

Are there certain foods that trigger the stomach pains and digestive issues?

Neuropathy cause’s gastroparesis aka slow digestion. Red meat stay on your stomach longer because it’s heavier. I can eat four bites after that I throw up. Have you been to a GI doctor.
