I have repeatedly been told that quitting smoking will help with the neuropathy issues but to date have been unsuccessful in that effort, however I am cutting back. I don't know if it is just coincidence but I have noticed a slight improvement in my leg weakness these last few days and I notice also that after a couple hours without a smoke the burning is less intense and then a smoke seemingly brings it on. Today is the first time I have associated the cigs with the PN and will need to more closely monitor to see if it continues to hold true. If so that is encouraging and yet one more major reason to quit.
