Can neuropathy in my feet cause balance problems?

I have hereditary neuropathy with pressure palsies (HNPP). A lot of meds and supplements cause me to have a pins and needles reaction all over my body, but it's usually gone within 24 hours of taking/stopping the medicine. The exception was when I took just one sublingual tab of B6/B12 and the pins and needles hit within minutes. They were sooo strong for 2 weeks even though I only took one dose. I thought it would never stop. I recently read that B6 is the worst for doing that. I won't be taking it again.

I am so glad you posted that. It is really good to know. I had avoided B6 for awhile but did not think about the B12 sublingual which I also had been taking. I am now experiencing pretty strong side effects from every prescription. Doctors have tried 3 blood pressure meds on me at different times and I am facing number 4. So far too strong. Last time heart beat dropped to critical. Yesterday had to start an antibiotic for infection in gums and on 2nd pill became very lightheaded,shaky, neuropathic pain around middle of body got worse, am nauseated. I have read that half doses are advised for some medical conditions but my docs have not bought into that. I worry that the meds are going to do me in, instead of helping me. — eirrol
