I usually eat a balanced diet, no junk food, no soft drinks, no added sugar, fruits, veggies. I always did, with the notable exception of my past bindge drinking sessions. God, leaving drinking behind was the best thing I did in my life. Yesterday I rode 67 kms on my bike. 1 and a half year ago, I had neural pain, weakness in my legs, could walk, but lost force sometimes.
I wish everyone a symptom free life as much as possible!

Yeah, I have noticed almost whenever I have higher pain levels, that seems to go hand in hand.
That said, I do have an extra variable in the equation. I reacted badly to an antiobiotic that has now been shown to cause neuropathy. I was finding a couple years ago that when I drank, no matter the amount, I had pain. So two years ago mid July, I stopped. Pain levels have mostly been good since, but do still have times, like now, where it’s not much fun. Usually fairly short flares, although I found last summer, covid is something that also doesn’t play well with neuropathy. As a teacher, around tons of germ carriers, I have wondered if I maybe had a mild case that just seemed like my allergies, but is gifting more neuropathy now.
That is my double, and occasional triple, whammy now.
