Alcohol Neuropathy: Unfortunately, it can. Please start supplementing with B-complex vitamins with folate (folic acid) if diet may be an issue. It could also be another form of neuropathic change so please seek a physician for an exam and an NCV/EMG if necessary. Of course, stopping all alcohol (with help of prescriptions and AA, if necessary) could help you. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000714.htm
