HI there @iceblue. I hope you had joy and laughter yesterday a day full of good memories. Thanks for the Medscape link. It went right to the article. Very thorough and a challenge to absorb. Did you find it definitive for you? If so, in what way. Be happy...be safe. Chris

Wonderfully informative article that strained my knowledge of medical terminology (gained while working in the pharmaceutical industry) to the breaking point! For me the comments on lumbar sacral radiculopathy as a co-morbidity were helpful. If I understand it correctly, nerve entrapment (and stenosis?) can cause symptoms that can overlap with or even be confused with the symptoms of peripheral neuropathy. This makes differential diagnosis (including testing). VERY important.
