John thank you for your response. I am so technically challenged… So I just go to the neuropathy pages and click on the “last” and hope I catch the new ones. There’s so much information on this site.
I have a problem I don’t read much about my feet occasionally get hot but usually they are cold. Coldness started about a year ago in the tips of my toes and now cold and numb up to the balls of my feet. It’s causing me to lose my balance. Also my legs are getting weak and for a while I developed plantar fasciitis but have corrected that with wearing splints at night and changing my shoes. Anybody else have cold numb feet? And does the neuropathy cause weak legs?

“ And does the neuropathy cause weak legs?”
Yes it can, in fact it can be one of the first symptoms.
I have completely numb feet but not cold or hot. But my numbness didn't happen until nearly 30 years after my diagnosis.
Does your numbness cause you gait or balance problems?
My primary problem is balance & gait but seizures, treatments & related comas contribute greatly to these issues.
I go put my shoes & socks on multiple times a day but there already on & vice verse.
