A member asked:

Symptoms of peripheral neropathy and joint pain with b6 level of 14 and b2 level of 5...have doctors missed something to make diagnosis?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Can't answer: That question unless i know what your doctors have already looked for? Bear in mind that there are hundred of causes for neuropathy, in just over 30% of patients, we never do find an exact cause. If you feel your doctors missed something, then seek a second opinion.
