This same thing happened to me 3 years ago. Neuro said the sensory tests (heat, vibration, touch, etc) on your feet would show something if small fiber were impaired. For what it's worth. I went on my way for 3 years, drinking about like you described (after taking 3 months off), maybe a bit more. Just came off a bender vacation with some buddies and it is all back.....stinks. |

Recently I also had a 2 hour glucose test and testing for celiac and neither came up with anything. I’ve done blood work for just about every known cause and so far nothing. Maybe I did just get the short end of the stick and it’s idiopathic or alcohol caused it at a lesser amount than others. Who knows. Edit: I just found out my insurance doesn’t require a referral for specialists. There’s a few neurology clinics near me so I’m going to try to find another one that’s open. With the testing and visits I’ve already hit my out of pocket max so they might as well throw everything at me testing wise. Last edited by gooilers18; 08-03-2022 at 06:38 PM. |

That's what I expect at this point but I can't seem to get a confirmation. Hell I can't even get a diagnosis on what is causing this. I got a differential diagnosis when all of this started and now it's turned into "you don't have any of the bad stuff so here's some gabapentin to go away."

Just a quick update. On a whim I decided to get my B6 tested and it was at 61 ng/mL with the normal range 2.1-21.7. Sounds like B6 toxicity which can cause neuropathy. Good news is that once stopping B6 it should improve. So for now no energy drinks, multivitamin, cereal, or anything else that has b6. Sucks but at least I may have an answer.
