Hello @matthewbull, Welcome to Connect. I think the person who started this discussion @darj may no longer be following Connect. There last post on the first page of this discussion (https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/128263/) mentioned they had idiopathic peripheral neuropathy.

Have you seen a neurologist or had any tests done to diagnose your symptoms?

I have seen a neurologist. All blood tests were fine. I was eventually told I had peripheral nerve damage due to excessive alcohol consumption. I was told this would get better over time. That was two years ago with a change in diet and lifestyle. The strange glue-foot sensation continues, burning and cramping sensation in feet and shins, numbness in legs, and a vice-like sensation in the knees. The numbness increases when sitting in a car or at the computer. I was wondering if this is a trapped nerve or something like spinal stenosis.

thanks for any help,

Matthew
