MGUS and Peripheral Neuropathy Read Article...

Hi Jessica,
Peripheral neuropathy is usually hands and feet, sometimes calf muscles, but nothing in MM is usual as there are so many experiences, etc.

Yes, PN is in both hands and feet..My PN seems to have tanked up in severity this last month to the point I can't feel my feet and the pressure on my hands from leaning into my rollator while walking has the nerves in my hands screaming all the while breaking through the numbness. I am told this is irreversible.
