[Bluestocking]

Hello. my first visit and certainly not my last. I have an early diagnosis of peripheral neuropathy, the main reason I first went to my GP was a wooden feeling in my midriff with a feeling of pressure in my throat with occasional abdominal pains and aches.
I mentioned 'numb toes' at the time but as he could feel a pulse in my feet he thought nothing of it. On my second visit a month later I insisted on a neurological referral, when PN was diagnosed
My question is, is there a connection between PN and abdominal symtoms?
I'm waiting for a glucose tolerance test, ultrasound and EMG next month, all other bloods were normal apart from a random blood sugar of 9. Barium swallow showed a gastric reflux and hiatus hernia - I have no symptoms of this.
All these tests and consultant appointments take months
I don't want to go on too long but I am so fed up
Thank you
