Hi there

Firstly I want to thank everyone for their warm welcome. I am finding the experiences here very helpful. Just wondering if anyone has experienced my current peripheral neuropathy symptoms where you wake up in the morning and it feels like you have slept on your arm or foot but you haven't. Like a fuzzy sort of feeling particularly bad in the wrist. Also over the last few days I have started to experience a slight dull ache in my right hip. When I move it or hop on it or touch it there doesn't seem to be any pain. This comes and goes.

Tomorrow I go for a followup appointment at the neurologist. I want to push for nerve conduction studies. My symptoms of peripheral neuropathy are worse in my right hand and wrist. Just wondering if it is worth trying to get a nerve biopsy of that area. Blood tests, reflexes, neurological test all normal last time I went. So far this peripheral neuropathy seems to be idiopathic. Have started taking 1000mg of vitamin B12 twice per day, B12 was a bit low.

I worry a bit as my job depends on my hands. Any advice of getting to the bottom of this peripheral neuropathy in terms of a cause. I want to leave no stone unturned. Main symptoms are in my introduction above. I have no fatigue, no eyesight problems, no muscle weakness or redness or swelling.

Sorry there are so many questions, would really appreciate your help.

All the best

Karen
