Default Neuropathy

Hi,
I have been suffering with neuropathy for about 7 months. Started off in my feet and his moved into my calves as well. I have seen a neurologist. I had an EMG done. There is some nerve damage noted, with a small amount of muscle too. I have cold sensations starting at my ankles into my feet. The doctor does not seem too concerned. He said that my next step would be a spinal tap. He thinks I could have possibly had some type of infection years ago and since I have been under tremendous stress (my mom passed away 9 months ago) it could have triggered something. My blood work is perfect (thyroid, diabetes). I am beginning to wonder if I have some type of food allergy. I am an avid Splenda user (I use alot). I stopped for about two weeks, but got back on it. Just would love someones else's opinion on what this could possibly be. I forgot to mention that I have been on a series of B12 injections for about three months. Thanks for any input )
