Dino @dinosoke, There are many causes for neuropathy and even one when they can't pinpoint the exact cause of your neuropathy like mine - idiopathic small fiber PN. Here's more information from Mayo Clinic - https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/peripheral-neuropathy/symptoms-causes/syc-20352061.

The Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy also has a list of known causes and more if you care to learn more about neuropathy - https://www.foundationforpn.org/causes/.

@johnbishop the Mayo clinic is still saying vitamin B6 is safe (August 2025 update) despite mounting evidence to the contrary. It causes peripheral neuropathy. Is not recommended above 10mg per day (only with medical diagnosis of deficiency) and is being taken off the shelves in Australia by 2027. I have no idea why it’s not banned now. Let the suppliers clear their stock and poison more people? Mayo still give it the green light despite the epidemic of peripheral neuropathy caused by taking it. I was really surprised.
