I had RAI about 35 years ago. Started to develop PN about 20 years ago. I have been able to keep it under control with supplements, good eating and weekly exercise routines. It has not gone past my toes or the ball of my feet and I have no real pain associated with in now.
There is a great forum at http://neurotalk.************.com/forum20.html for support of PN and they have a lot of information on supplements etc..
Thanks for sharing this information with me. I appreciate your willingness to share information.
Thanks for taking the time to write and share your information. I appreciate it very much!
Pernicious anemia/vitamin B12 deficiency can cause peripheral neuropathy and should always be ruled out. This can be done with a simple blood test. I had untreated pernicious anemia for many years, and have permanent nerve damage because it. My thyroid levels don't change it.
While I can't directly answer your question, as I have hypothyroidism and have not had RAI ablation but I do also experience peripheral neuropathies related to my thyroid. When I have hypo symptoms, that is definitely one of them. When the meds were working and my levels were normal, it would go away. So hopefully as you begin to regulate and normalize your levels, yours will also go away. Good luck!
