[QUOTE="Adele99, post: 623220, member: 47601"] Can vary depending on loss of sensation to super sensitisation. Pain as described above can vary from a feeling of warmth, or hot water running down your leg, to burning as if someone has thrown boiling water on your skin. A simple touch sensation can be painful , so clothes and bed sheets can cause painful sensations. Then there's the electric shock pain which is sharp in bursts and comes from nowhere. Loss of feelings would be numb, iyou can't feel something touching your skin , or can feel as if your feet are in cotton wool, or candy floss. Areas affected depend on the length of nerve affected and which nerve and can vary. The most common area seems to leg and feet, but when. I had painful sensitive neuropathy it was in my left side, which wasn't typical so took some time for a diagnosis. In my case the nerves must have repaired to a greater extent as I'm not often troubled by it, now it's just some residual sensitivity in that side. [/QUOTE]
