Can neuropathy in my feet cause balance problems?

How did the podiatrist diagnose you? Normally you have to have a nerve conduction test or skin punch biopsy to diagnose neuropathy. Balance problems can be caused by different conditions and I suppose some can occur quicker than others.

Have you discussed the symptoms with your doctor?

I did have the EMG/NCV test on 2/9/22 but the Doctor could not access it. I have a appointment next week, he should have it by then.

He used the “pin prick”. It was suggested that I have further tests but there no follow up
