Good morning all......My name is Barbie from minot and im the mother of a 27 yr old daughter that was recently diagnosed with polyneuropathy. We've seen 12 drs here in minot....they say there is nothing more they can do for her except go to mayo. The worse is the numbness in her hands. Any advice? She thinks if could possibly be from drinking?

Hello Barbie @6969, welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Thank you for being an advocate for your daughter. It's good to learn as much as you can about a diagnosis or health condition. Connect is a great place to ask questions and learn what others with similar health conditions or symptoms are doing for treatments. Here is some information on polyneuropathy:

Did your daughter's doctors provide a referral to Mayo Clinic? If you would like to seek help from Mayo Clinic, you can contact one of their appointment offices. The contact information for Minnesota, Arizona and Florida can be found here:

Has your daughter found anything that helps with the numbness in her hands?
