My neuropathy symptoms really started around the first of November this past year, and quickly spread all over my body in a matter of weeks. So far the cause is unknown.The neurologist took one set of blood tests and that's it. All came out normal. I did however, take one of the drugs listed in that article, it was Hydralazine. I started it in June, taking 25 mg. three times a day, and was taking it when the neuropathy hit me in November. I have since gone off the drug at my insistence and I am taking a different high blood pressure drug, along with some others that I have been taking for years. It was the Hydralazine that was the new one. The Neurologist said he never heard of that causing problems, and my primary doctor didn't think so either. I have however, come across this drug listed as causing neuropathy on the net. It has something to do with B6 absorption?

Has anyone else heard about this drug and it's connection to neuropathy? Thank you for any input...
