I don't know. I told my neurologist that at the end of every day I had between 2 and 5(6 on occasion) drinks...mostly beer. He said it had nothing to do with my PN, but I am not so sure. Lately, I have noticed that certain beers aggravate the PN, while others do not. Mixed drinks high in sugar also have an impact....like Margaritas.
I agree, a cold turkey is in order, then re-assess. Generally speaking I don't think alcohol is a PN precursor, but for us sufferers it might bridge that link to sugar and diabetes symptoms.
I know I will miss my nightly drinks, they do have what I would call a positive effect on my psyche, so ditching them will take some adjustment.
