I'm beginning to think that no one knows very much about PN, and that Drs. shy away from discussing it., & rather not deal with the symptoms. i find the discussion with this group, more informative. Are PAD & PN the same disease? I could not get medical insurance from a company because I listed PN. My agent thought they were the same.

Hi @cameron2020 -- Hopefully this will help with explaining the difference.

"Are PAD and neuropathy related?
These results demonstrate that PAD can be associated with the development of a multifocal predominantly motor neuropathy, which is most likely ischemic in etiology. Furthermore, exercise training does not pose an additional risk for the development of neuropathy in patients with moderately severe PAD." -- Is it Neuropathy or Peripheral Artery Disease?: Progression of neuropathy in peripheral arterial disease - PubMed: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/7715622/
