In 2017, I experienced neuropathy only through the night, in my right hand when it was healing from two broken wrist bones. The orthopedic surgeon was dismissive and so, I ignored it too. It eventually went away on its own.
In 2021, I began having neuropathy at the same time I was having RA flare ups. The pain was in the palm of my right and then it was in my legs, arms and very uncomfortable. The rheumatologist told me, “you don’t have neuropathy! What does it feel like?” By the time I told her, the pain had already been helped either by everything I was taking for it or it just went away as mysteriously as it came on.
