Tampa Dr. Nelson Mane answers to this question is the cause of your peripheral neuropathy Really unknown (idiopathic)?

She is not diabetic. You are not alcoholic. Do not have a kidney disease. Were not treated for HIV or had had chemotherapy. You are taking the B vitamins, but you still have neuropathy. About 30% of patients diagnosed with idiopathic neuropathy (do not know why.) Scientific literature can have an answer for some of them in the idiopathic group. It seems to gluten sensitivity associated with neuropathy. There is a simple blood test for antibodies to gliadin (gliadin is a form of gluten) and testing for the gene HLA-DQ determine if you are sensitive to gluten. This could be the answer to your “problem because I have neuropathy.

Here are some scientific literature.

Celiac disease is a rare cause of neuropathy, which often has symmetrical distal sensory disturbances. We describe two patients with celiac disease, in which neuropathy presented unusually with progressive weakness of the limbs. In both patients a gluten-free diet induced a significant improvement in muscle strength and neurophysiological abnormalities, suggesting a direct pathogenetic role of sensitivity to gluten. Celiac disease should be considered in patients with idiopathic neuropathy even when gastrointestinal symptoms are lacking.

Many of us who treat patients neuropathy are aware of this, but I see patients every day who worked for neuropathy, but not aware of this possibility.
