Hi, - I'm a new member.

Has anyone heard of non-diabetic peripheral neuropathy being caused by COVID infection.
I'm 59 in pretty good health, and believe I (and family) got COVID in late February before the emergency declaration. We (Family) all got pretty sick including shortness of breath. Peripheral neuropathy started shortly after that and I did nothing about it. Got vaccinated as soon as was available - but got COVID again in Jan 2022. My peripheral neuropathy got worse so in March made a few lifestyle changes including increasing exercise and reducing alcohol intake. By May was walking an hour a day 4 times a week and also gym 3 to 4 times. Stopped alcohol completely. My peripheral neuropathy was a little better but certainly still an issue.

In mid June I added nerve friendly vitamins (B group, Alpha-lipoic acid, tumeric etc) and also decided to eliminate coffee (3/4 cups per day) about a week later. Of all the things I have tried the elimination of caffeine has had the most immediate and positive effect. I'm in my second week caffeine free and its a noticeable difference - not fixed but better.

Interested if anyone has had a benefit from less caffeine or has any other key diet tips. My thoughts are that the process I have been on has been cumulative - more exercise, no alcohol, no caffeine

Thanks
