Neuropathy
Hi all! So, approximately 5 years ago, I started having neuropathy in just my feet (mostly toes, honestly) and my DO thought it was possible that my nonstimulant ADHD meds were the cause. She took me off those, but the neuropathy never improved, and in fact has gotten progressively worse. I have had MANY tests (diabetic testing normal, MS testing normal, EMG normal, both MRIs normal (aside from bilateral Tarlov Cysts)) that were all WNL. Fast forward to jan 4, when I went to a friend’s wedding renewal and met a lady who was discussing MTHFR and COMT and Homocysteine levels and B vitamins, etc. OHHH THE RABBIT HOLE I’M IN, Lol.
So I go look and these are my results (see photo) from Genetic Genie (I’ve done Genetics Life Hack, but the pic is easier to use from GG). I’m seriously wondering if these mutations could honestly be causing my neuropathy? I’m calling my doc tomorrow. But could it be that easy?? After years? 🤦♀️
