Neuropathy & covid connection

Posted by fenn47 @fenn47, Jan 5 12:53am

Has anyone ever come up with a connection between neuropathy and covid. For me neuropathy started a couple of years ago. Coincidentally I had covid and then had 3 covid vaccinations. Is it possible that this could have activated the onset of neuropathy.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Neuropathy Support Group.

@charlieg304 So sorry about your PN and the consequences for your active lifestyle. I am in a similar situation: started to run marathons in 2013 after the Boston Marathon bombing and crossed the finish line 11 times since then. First Covid infection in 2022 and second one in 2024 while having all Moderna mRNA Covid vaccinations. Diagnosed with idiopathic axonal polyneuropathy in 2023, but symptoms started earlier. I was still able to run the Chicago Marathon in 2024 by managing my PN, but had to drop out this year after multiple issues in my right foot. It is complicated because my spinal stenosis comes into play as well. In my case, keeping my core strong and train my brain to deal with the loss of signals coming from my feet is my hope.

@dieterreuther I'm wondering what you're doing to train your brain to deal with loss of signals.

How is this for a coincidence, I have painful neuropathy in my feet and legs. Over the last 5 years, I had covid twice and the flu twice. That's 4 times with Fever. All 4 times during the fever period, the neuropathy pains went away, totally. Don't know what to make of this.
