Anyways - I have a question on what I'm perceiving to be alcohol induced neuropathy. I've been a pretty heavy drinker for the past 7 years. 3 days ago I woke up with some tingling in my right leg. I didn't think much of it, but came across alcohol induced PN and really started to freak myself out. I've cut all drinking since then, but still have the symptoms. I wouldn't say it's painful, just more uncomfortable and giving me some anxiety that I've done irrecoverable damage. I have done some searches on the forums and have seen the supplements that people have recommended so I'm planning on starting down that route.

My main question is - Can alcohol induced PN come on this quickly? I don't remember noting any tingling or numbness anywhere prior to this. Does this sound like alcohol induced PN?

Thanks in advance for the help!
