The neuropathy can probably happen after any surgery, mine came on over 9 yrs ago after hip replacement...talk about regrets, yes I have some. I try so so much and I get help and trust the Grape Seed Extract I have been taking for a long time helps too. A friend was on gabapentin for long time with all it's side effects and now off it, and takes Grape Seed Extract, and she's managing better...and no side effects.
I've posted plenty about this wonderful antioxidant.

Re: hysterectomy, I had one probably close to 40 yrs and left with god awful sciatic nerve damage. It's been flaring in the last year or so...just awful things can and often do happen to us when we are traumatized with surgeries. Body does not like to be cut....truth.
