Hi dtaijo174,

A belated welcome to neurotalk - I've been absent from the forum for a while having had other issues to deal with - so just catching up a little here.

To add to the suggestions others have made and going back to your original post - you mentioned that you had been very ill for about a week while on a business trip overseas.

Did you ever get a specific diagnosis of the illness cause? eg, gastroentological, viral, bacterial, parasite etc.

Did you take any antibiotics (or medications other than those you've listed) at the time of the illness or since then? If you can provide the name(s) there may be information available here on neuropathy side effects or others may share their experiences.

Either of these could have singly or jointly contributed to causing peripheral neuropathy. Finding a possible cause can assist deciding treatment options.

Ragtop's suggestions are all great steps you can take yourself without requiring a doctor's input, and will help manage the condition no matter what the cause.

Feel free to ask more specific questions if you want.
