Hello Maureen @maureenb, Welcome to Connect. I did a search of Connect and wasn't able to find any members who posted about chronic kidney disease and neuropathy but I have a feeling there are members that have both conditions and may be able to share their experiences with you. I was able to find a couple of references that might be helpful.

-- Chronic kidney disease as a risk factor for peripheral nerve impairment in older adults: A longitudinal analysis of Health, Aging and Body Composition (Health ABC) study: https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0242406
-- Neurological complications in chronic kidney disease: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5102165/

Have you discussed your thoughts about protein and CKD with your doctor to see if they might have some thoughts or suggestions?

Thank you John for your reply and the links you posted. I will take a look at the information.

I have an appointment with my nephrologist on Feb 1st and my neurologist on Feb 4th. I will be asking them both if there is a connection between my CKD and my peripheral neuropathy. I will post if I find out anything interesting as it my be helpful to other people.
