It feels like a circulatory problem more than a nerve problem since it goes away once the blood gets flowing, but I can't tell. Mind you, blood pools in my feet especially in the mornings whenever I'm standing or sitting with feet on the ground, and not walking around. I don't know what, if anything, that has to do with my PN.

Thanks!

That is exactly how mine started. I never told any doctors because I assumed that it was circulatory and just lived with it. Now years later it turns out that it was the beginning of neuropathy. I guess the autonomic part of my neuropathy is what compromises my circulation.
