I'm curious about the different types of neuropathy. What has caused your neuropathy? Mine apparently is CIPN a result of chemo drugs for my pancreatic cancer. But the symptoms have changed over the last couple of years. More burning in my feet, more numbness and more loss of balance when standing in the shower etc. Should I be seeing a neurologist to get some help, saw one who wasn't much help. I am going to try CBD oil or creams but haven't found a place to purchase yet in Canada. Thoughts from others would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi @icelander19, Curiosity and learning are a good thing. I have idiopathic small fiber peripheral neuropathy which my neurologist thinks might be hereditary based on family history. Matthew B. Jensen who is a neurologist in Madison, Wisconsin has a YouTube channel with a lot great videos on the types and causes of neuropathy that you might find helpful for learning more - https://www.youtube.com/c/MatthewBJensen.
