Thank you so much, agate. Your prompts earlier in my journey led me back to a neurologist for a secondary MS consult. I really appreciate your input and soothing advice. Thank you.

OP: I don't know if I have replied to you before but I mention the things that I feel work the best in my life with neuropathy:

Getting off sugars big time.
Taking Grape Seed Extract, works for cleaning and thinning blood and does so much.
Taking Inosine.

I've talked about these until blue in the face. And I've posted a lot in the PN area.

Hi gailveronica

One problem is that there are many possible causes of PN; searching for "one size fits all" can be unhelpful.

From what you have said you have had a series of careful investigations; which is good - I hope something(s) useful emerges soon

Best wishes.

Default And--

--you might need some imaging or close orthopedic examination of the pelvic area there; certainly compressive neuropathies can come from the lower spine, but also from the hip area and also from the knee.

Given you description of symptoms, there may be an impingement of nerve as it passes through the lower pelvic area on its way down the leg--and yes, this is more common in people who are overweight.
