Welcome @ponchoxx, Sorry to hear you haven't found much relief for your neuropathy symptoms. There are quite a few members who have mentioned sensitivity to temperature changes and weather. Here's a related discussion that might be helpful - Temperature intolerance and sensitivity - Autonomic Neuropathy?: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/temperature-intolerance-and-sensitivity-autonomic-nephropathy/.

From what I've read, if you have poor blood circulation in your legs, it can cause similar symptoms to temperature changes. Have the doctors ever mentioned blood circulation issues?

@johnbishop thanks for the prompt reply, I believe circulation has a bearing on it, however more importantly is the lumbar vertebrae I have to check my back after radiation, the medicine for AFIB, Amidiorone is real toxic and one side effect is that cause Neuropathy, so it may have incremented mine, this year is been the year of illness, I’m not given up although at 79 feel like galloping into old age.
