Alcohol and neuropathy

Posted by mikead63 @mikead63, Feb 5 10:48am

1. Has there been any legitimate research on how alcohol affects the symptoms of neuropathy?
2. Has there been any legitimate research on how alcohol affects the progression of neuropathy?
Individual's own experience is fine but a study by Mayo, Cleveland Clinic, John's Hopkins etc. is what I am specifically interested in.

Thank You!

@mikead63, I've seen a few research articles on alcohol and neuropathy but there many. Here's one from Mayo Clinic:
-- Diagnosing Peripheral Neuropathy in Patients With Alcohol Use Disorder:
https://www.mayoclinicproceedings.org/article/S0025-6196(24)00132-0/fulltext
Google Scholar shows many more research papers from all over the world, you can tweak the search parameters to find more specific articles - https://scholar.google.com/scholar?as_ylo=2025&q=alcoholism+%2Bneuropathy+%2Bclinical+study+%2Bmayo+clinic&hl=en&as_sdt=0,24.

I'm assuming you've seen all of the discussions on neuropathy and alcohol. If not, they might be worth scanning through - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/?search=neuropathy+and+alcohol

I carry it around with me and have been doing my own research - it is the reason I have started taking alpha lipoic acid.
