I don't know what this means.Am I getting worse? Or is this normal for neuropathy.
I am not taking any other meds and Dr.doesn't know what is wrong.
Any suggestions as to what I should be doing?
Thanks

I agree with Mrs, D on the B6.
Is there any pattern to numbness? Such as night/day or hot cold weather? I too had terrible numbness in many areas that seemed to get worse and then one day all feeling came back. It's very unsettling I know. My partner wakes up with numb hands every morning and I rub them until feeling comes back. I keep telling him I think he has nerve entrapment, as it's always after sleep that it happens. Have you seen a doctor?
