I have neuropathy and had 3 colonoscopies and never heard anything about there being a link between the procedure and neuropathy. The procedure includes using a scope to look at the lining of the colon and removing any polyps and biopsy where any abnormalities are seen. Nothing in the procedure would cause widespread nerve damage that I am aware of. Nerve damage is usually tied to toxins, vitamin deficiencies, diabetes/high blood sugars, etc.

You put on their medical gown and socks and they put warm blankets on you during the procedure and it is very quick (you are in and out in a short time because they don’t use general anesthesia).
