Many people who do not have neuropathy have the same symptoms that are reported on this forum. There is a tendancy to blame neuropathy for all ailments that are reported.
This type of thinking also occurs on other boards here.
People tend to focus on one thing and blame it for everything once a diagnosis is given by a doctor.

MS patients, may be having blood sugar problems, on top of the MS and giving symptoms.
I've seen one person on RSD blame ear pain on RSD, when in fact it was a serious infection.
The TBI forum tends to blame many symptoms on their concussions which may be due to additional medical issues.

Medical issues can be very complex, overlap with each other, and when combined with lifestyle issues, or poor nutrition, the result can be extremely confusing.
