Hi, I am wondering, since you placed your post under the neuropathy group, whether you have been diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy (PN)? If not, are you intending to be tested for it?

As to what can cause PN other than diabetes, I have heard a myriad of different causes from a number of different people in this forum. My wife's is from chemotherapy (a fairly common cause), but quite a few people say theirs was from different surgical procedures. Some have gotten it simply from an injection. A vitamin b12 deficiency caused another person's case. And there are other causes as well. Just FYI. Best, Hank

@jesfactsmon. I have been reading all the posts on PN even though I don't have it.. For some reason I thought PN is related to diabetes. Thank you for educating me on all the possible causes. I am so glad I found Mayo Connect, I have learned so much from all of you. Thank you!
