There is a link between crohns and peripheral neuropathies, I had actually discovered this when researching and trying to find out what the heck was wrong. Personally, I think there is a link between the Humira and the neuropathy, everything else that it could possibly link it is ruled out, ie diabetes and b12 and I have had every test known. If it is possible to hit rock bottom .. then i am there. I have been given lyrica for the pain, i can take as much as i want... omg, it is doing my head in.

Have u tried Metanx? It cut my pain in half. I have peripheral neuropathy too. Metanx is a wonder drug for me and non-narcotic. Also, Cymbalta is an antidepressant which helps neuropathy pain.
Good to know about B6 since I am going crazy with vitamins out of trying to solve this. Dr's have been no help to me yet. Any insight from your side of the world?
