Peripheral neuropathy was diagnosed in 2005 at Southern General after referral by Western Transplant Team. Consultant advised likely caused by poor kidney function and prescription drugs.
Neuropathy consultant at Crosshouse recently confirmed worsening condition likely due to poor kidney function and possible vitamin deficiency. Transplant consultant states unlikely to be connected to kidney function (last check at 17). Also told transplant patients not routinely checked for vitamin deficiencies.
Web advises vitamin deficiencies can be caused by poor kidney function and if treated can improve neuropathy symptoms.
