I have idiopathic small fiber peripheral neuropathy. Driving certainly does make my symptoms worse.
Lois6524, did you mean that driving does not cause peripheral neuropathy? If so, I agree completely. However, driving is among the many things that make the symptoms worse. Cold weather, pressure from simply wearing shoes and socks. my mood, and many other things can make me feel worse.
Driving became so difficult that we recently sold our RV. My wife doesn't particular like driving it, and I found that at times I was driving barefoot.
