Are You Suffering?


Peripheral Neuropathy Symptoms
The symptoms of peripheral neuropathy
depend on which type of nerve is affected.
The three main types of nerves are sensory,
motor, and autonomic. Neuropathy can affect
any one or a combination of all three types of
nerves. Symptoms also depend on whether
the condition affects the whole body or just
one nerve (as from an injury).

SENSATION CHANGES
Did You Know?
Damage to sensory fibers results in:

burning sensations

annually. (this does not include the
other 70% of non diabetic cases!)
For many neuropathies, sensation changes often begin in the feet and progress
toward the center of the body with involvement of other areas as the condition
worsens.

are a sign of motor nerve involvement.

Other muscle-related symptoms


include:

Lack of muscle control

Difficulty or inability to move a


part of the body (paralysis)

Muscle atrophy

Muscle twitching (fasciculation)


or cramping See below for details!

Difficulty breathing or swallowing

Falling (from legs buckling or


tripping over toes)

Lack of dexterity (such as being


unable to button a shirt)

AUTONOMIC SYMPTOMS

The autonomic nerves control involuntary or semi-voluntary functions, such as


control of internal organs and blood pressure. Damage to autonomic nerves can
cause:

Blurred vision

Decreased ability to sweat

Dizziness that occurs when standing up or fainting associated with a fall in


blood pressure

Heat intolerance with exertion (decreased ability to regulate body


temperature)

Constipation

Unintentional weight loss (more than 5% of body weight)

Urinary incontinence

Feeling of incomplete bladder emptying

Difficulty beginning to urinate (urinary hesitancy)

Male impotence

Exams and Tests

A detailed history is needed to determine the cause of the neuropathy. Neurologic


examination may reveal abnormalities of movement, sensation, or organ function.
Changes in reflexes and muscle bulk may also be present.

Tests that reveal neuropathy may include:

EMG (a recording of electrical activity in muscles)

Nerve conduction tests

Nerve biopsy

Blood tests to screen for medical conditions, such as diabetes and vitamin
deficiency, among others.

Tests for neuropathy are guided by the suspected cause of the disorder, as
suggested by the history, symptoms, and pattern of symptom development. They
may include various blood tests, x-rays, scans, or other tests and procedures.
