Approach to Polyneuropathy - causes, pathophysiology, investigations

"Polyneuropathy is a disorder that involves damage to multiple peripheral nerve fibers, with the distal nerves usually affected most prominently. And so the classic presentation is a symmetric distal burning or loss of sensation. Common causes include alcohol and diabetes to rare causes such as charcot marie tooth disease."

I was diagnosed with migraines and fibromyalgia in 1992, central sensitization in 2014, and small fiber polyneuropathy in 2023 (following cold turkey benzo withdrawal after decades of taking it as directed). Not diabetic. Everything hurt, itched and burned with severe cramping started in feet and calves. Extreme anxiety. I NEVER had numbness, instead had hypersensitivity to pain and temperature. Now a year later, the burning/tingling has stopped in my feet amd moved upward to buttocks, ulnar nerve entrapment. I have begun the GAPS diet and have started grounding (earthing). I'm now calmer, and have actually started sleeping without cramping, burning or anxiety! DIET AND GROUNDING, FOLKS. Try it!

[@picsi-software]

Thank you for such a clear explanation - question, several relations as well as myself have symptoms of polyneuropathy. Blood tests for myself have come back negative on CMT, nerve conduction apparently suggests primarily axonal. Is there other genetic causes other than CMT?

Hey, can acupuncture be worth trying and what other methods can help?

[@Danielle-pt7we]

How long did it take you to retain this knowledge? Do you research before the videos? I want to get into the medical field but have a fear i won't be able to retain the information I need and living in Melbourne its a big cost to find out im not smart enough!

[@SD-co9xe]

I have neuropathy with no known cause. My vitamin d levels were normal but low normal. I started taking b12 supplements and it is helping. Strenuous exercise on the evenings also helps.

I’ve been diagnosed with “Mixed Polyneuropathy”. What does that mean?

[@curtischildress9580]

I have severe numbness & pain in both legs into my feet from above my knees. The suspected cause is a pneumonia vaccine I had in Springtime 2020 over 2 years ago. I've been treated with weekly Methotrexate injections for over 6 months with no improvement. For the last 5 months I've taken 12 infusions of IVIG (Immunoglobulin) with no improvement. Please might you offer a remedy. I suffer constant pain both legs & am terribly crippled using a walker due to the deep profound numbness both legs & feet. Thank you for a reply. Shalom.

[@HeyMJ.]

The issue desc’d reminds me of symp’s I had bc of spinal injury. Spinal Cord nerve end’s weren’t ‘dangling’ freely (like cooked spaghetti). To decompress nerve endings, neurosurgeon perform’d a Laminectomy w/Foraminotomy (day surgery, removed to scar tissue /spurring). I’ve been pain free for 5+yrs. Kind regards ~

[@curtischildress9580]

@@HeyMJ. Glad to know you got better & still doing good 5 years later. Your injury could fortunately be repaired...you're lucky & blessed. My spine has been scanned a few times & it's OK. The nerves in my lower legs & both feet are sick & damaged due to a rare medication reaction. Both legs & feet have been numb nearly 3 years & I can't stand or walk without a walker...deep intense pain is constant in both lower legs & feet...never any relief...I can't imagine living too long. I'm praying for some help & will be going back to a university specialist on October 4th...this will be my last chance probably. Thank you for sharing information which can help people. Blessings to you.

demyelinating motor polyneuropathy can be cured?

[@marymunro1142]

I have found that the only surface I can stand on my legs is a fox fur coat, fur side up of course. The burning, the grating, the weight are all toned down. If you would like to try this and don’t have a fur of your own, send me a comment and I may be able to send you one. I offer this because I would like to see if this works for anyone else.

[@chrissie1066]

I developed polyneuropathy all over my body, including my tongue very suddenly. One minute I was cooking and the next was in ER burning all over. Hospitalised for six days and after a lumbar puncture and nerve and muscle tests I was home with no answer. I was seen by so many specialists but none could give me a reason. That was 12 years ago and my symptoms remain. I take Lyrica and Cymbalta at night. It’s very uncomfortable in warmer weather and I’m constantly cold in the winter. Any thoughts Doctor?
