Hi,
I've been a very heavy drinker & smoker for about 4 years now with very little exercise (lazing on the couch!). Over the past 2 months I have been suffering from severe pins & needles type sensation's in my toe's and cold type sensation in my finger's constantly.
Although I still have full mobility I have weak limb's in terms of my knee's and ankle's in particular.... actually, I have fallen over a couple of time's due to the weakness.
I've had a look around the net & it appears I may have alcohol neuropathy.
My question's really...
Apart from the vitamin B's (B1, B2, B6 & B12 I believe) is there anything else I can do to help out?
What sort of exercising should I participate in at the moment?
I woke up one morning & gave up alcohol just like that, could this be the reason for the problem's? Should I have stepped it down slowly?
Cheers.
