I have been diagnostic history includes both varicose veins, chronic venous insufficiency and peripheral neuropathy etiology unknown. Aside from the regular heaviness at night I have been recently getting intermittent bouts of more intense leg pain usually in the am after sleeping. Thought it was from the veins so I went for an other ultra sound but it was not DVT thank goodness. Now I am thinking the CVI is causing the peripheral neuropathy to get worse but only in one leg do I have the issue of occasional intense pain. I see a vascular surgeon and neurologist among other specialists for other chronic conditions but nobody is putting these two conditions together. All I have been offered is gabapentin. So back to the original question. Does CVI cause neuropathy?
