Neuropathy: You have some type of nerve pain. What is causing it is unclear. Are you diabetic? Do you have neck pain? Have you recently had a stomach "flu" or any kind of infection? Are you on medication and if so are any of them known to cause neurotoxicity? Do you drink a lot of alcohol? If you dont think you drink a lot, do you drink alcohol on most days? I think seeing a doctor to discuss this is best.
