My son who is a dr thinks it’s alcoholic neuropathy because I drank 4 drinks a day for 30 years. . I quit 8 months ago. I have bad balance problems and only pain in thumb and wrist and back of hand. Never any foot pain or tingling.

Hi, @pha29205. Four drinks a day for 30 years is a lot, but not unlike my drinking history. I started drinking at 17 (18 was legal then in NYC), but I had a fake ID, drank all through my undergraduate years, all through my Army years, all through my grad school years, and on and on. That's a lot of years, too. I finally quit not because I'd lost a job or had a love affair fall apart but because I came to my senses one day and realized that I'd lost ALL ambition, all but being sure I could get to that next drink. Crazy, I know. My PN gives me only balance trouble. No pain, for which I'm powerfully grateful! –Cheers! Ray (@ray666)
