Can neuropathy in my feet cause balance problems?

Hi there @oliver4
I had a sudden onset of balance issues along with some other sudden onset issues . I was told it was due to my neuropathy . I was so concerned I managed to get a neurologist to order an MRI of my spine and brain . They found 1 herniated and 2 collapsed discs in my neck . Debris and - or just age can thicken the nerve channel and compress the nerve . One of the symptoms is sudden onset of balance issues . Are you noticing any foot drag ?
I am not a doctor . I am not giving anyone advice . I am just stating what has been happening to me . Every situation is different .

Idk if I have neuropathy or not. I have balance problems (I walk like a mild? drunk),left foot drop after craniotomy, left leg tingling (occasionally right before seizure, caused by craniotomy, but not usually), but no pain. I’ve read neuropathy is not always accompanied by pain, so I don’t know yet. Going to see the Great Wizard in February 🤞🏻

I have had several mri’s of my spine & brain. The only thing they notice is arthritis but don’t think it is the cause of my balance problem
