Hi @tonyde, There is a connection of sorts. Here's some information on the topic:
"Vascular disorders (circulation-related problems). Lack of blood flow can cause peripheral neuropathy. A harmless, temporary form of this happens when you sit or lay a certain way and an arm or leg falls asleep. This goes away quickly if you shift position enough for circulation to return. More severe circulation problems can cause serious and permanent nerve damage."

There are a couple of related discussions on the topic also:

Did the specialist start any treatments or suggest any procedures to help with the blood flow?
