Yep.
If you really can just stop, then give it a try for 30 days, and that will tell you whether or not it's alcohol related or not. Thanks for stopping in! |

Muso, one consequence of my alcohol abuse was moderate PN, also in my hands.
I stopped drinking some years ago and my PN is now quite mild though I do have a bit of essential tremor in my hands. I hope that this will encourage you.

If it were me, I would quit all alcohol until all the symptoms are gone (or at least almost gone) and then debate whether a drink a day is worth it. |

Even AFTER that, it still took 4 more months of drinking 1 liter a month BEFORE i stopped altogether. Quitting drinking for an alcoholic is DIFFICULT -- especially when the bloodwork is good (mine is just fine). If I didn't get the burning in my feet, I'd still be drinking, and would probably drink myself to liver/kidney damage -- or worse. I SUPPOSE -- all things considered -- as miffed as i am at myself for doing this to myself -- neuropathy (mine is mild and not yet formally diagnosed, but not ruled out either) beats the alternative. I know at least 2 people between 35-40 (I'm 41) who went to rehab for 30 days, left, started drinking again, and one passed from alcohol poisoning (used to drink a liter of scotch in a sitting) and was hospitalized at least twice. In other words, people like us shouldn't be drinking AT ALL. Easier said than done. I hope you situation gives you the strength to stop drinking, period. Moreover, I hope you (and all of us) find relief from your symptoms. Best wishes. |
