Causes of neuropathy
Approximately 30% of neuropathies are 'idiopathic', or of an unknown cause7.

Many different conditions can lead to peripheral neuropathy8:

Medical pills and capsules
Nearly 40 drugs are known to cause neuropathy.
Diabetes - the commonest cause of chronic peripheral neuropathy. High blood sugar levels in people with poorly controlled diabetes damage nerves.
B12 or folate vitamin deficiencies can cause nerve damage and peripheral neuropathy.
Drugs - such as some chemotherapy medication and medicines used to treat HIV can cause damage to peripheral nerves.
Poisons (toxins) - insecticides and solvents can cause peripheral nerve damage.
Cancers - peripheral neuropathy can occur in people with some cancer E.G: lymphoma and multiple myeloma.
Alcohol excess - high alcohol levels in the body cause nerve damage.
Chronic kidney disease - if the kidneys are not functioning normally, an imbalance of salts and chemicals can cause peripheral neuropathy.
Chronic liver disease.
Injuries - broken bones and tight plastercasts can put pressure directly on the nerves.
Infections - damage can be caused to peripheral nerves by some infections including shingles, HIV infection and Lyme disease.
Guillain-Barré syndrome is the name given to a specific type of peripheral neuropathy triggered by infection.
Connective tissue diseases - rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren's syndrome and systemic lupus erythematosus.
Certain inflammatory conditions - conditions including sarcoidosis and coeliac disease can also cause peripheral neuropathy.
Hereditary diseases - Charcot-Marie-Tooth syndrome and Friedreich's ataxia.
Idiopathic - in a few people, no specific cause is found for their peripheral neuropathy. This is known as idiopathic peripheral neuropathy.

Neuropathy is the term used to describe a problem with the nerves, usually the 'peripheral nerves' as opposed to the 'central nervous system' (the brain and spinal cord).

Neuropathy is seen with a number of different underlying medical conditions. It can also exist without the cause being possible to diagnose, when doctors called it 'idiopathic.'

Fast facts on neuropathy
Here are some key points about neuropathy. More detail and supporting information is in the main article.
Neuropathy is a common condition.
Neuropathy is a complication of a number of different medical conditions.
Three types of nerve can be involved; autonomic nerves, motor nerves and sensory nerves.
Sometimes single nerves, or nerve sets are affected. Bell's Palsy is a specific example of a neuropathy of the facial nerve, affecting the muscles and skin of the face.
Physical trauma, repetitive injury, infection, metabolic problems and exposure to toxins and some drugs can all lead to neuropathy.
Most cases of neuropathy are found in people who have diabetes. 2,3
With neuropathy as a complication of diabetes, up to 50% of people affected may be completely without symptoms. 4,5
Testing for neuropathy is a routine part of diabetes care.
While neuropathy can't really be treated, the underlying causes can be targeted. 2,6
For toxic causes, removing exposure to a toxin, or stopping a culprit drug, can halt further nerve damage.
What is neuropathy?
Peripheral neuropathy is common.
It is estimated that upwards of 20 million Americans suffer from this illness.
It can occur at any age, but is more common among older adults.
A 1999 survey found that 8-9% of Medicare recipients have peripheral neuropathy as their primary or secondary diagnosis.
The annual cost to Medicare exceeds $3.5 billion.1
The term 'neuropathy' covers a wide area and many nerves, but the problem it causes depends on the type of nerves that are affected:

Sensory nerves (the nerves that control sensation) causing cause tingling, pain, numbness, or weakness in the feet and hands
Motor nerves (the nerves that allow power and movement) causing weakness in the feet and hands
Autonomic nerves (the nerves that control the systems of the body eg gut, bladder) causing changes in the heart rate and blood pressure or sweating
Neuropathy has many causes, and any number of the three nerve types can be affected at any one time.

Mononeuropathy refers to a single nerve being affected
Polyneuropathy means several nerves are affected

1.0 Introduction PFT test
Pulmonary Function testing measures the function of lung capacity and lung and chest wall mechanics to determine whether or not the patient has a lung problem. Pulmonary Function Tests are commonly referred to as "PFTs". When a patient is referred for PFT's, it means that a battery of tests may be carried-out including: simple screening spirometry, static lung volume measurement, diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide, airways resistance, respiratory muscle strength and arterial blood gases.

Pulmonary Function Tests are used for the following reasons:

Screening for the presence of obstructive and restrictive diseases
Evaluating the patient prior to surgery - this is especially true of patients who:
a. are older than 60-65 years of age
b. are known to have pulmonary disease
c. are obese (as in pathologically obese)
d. have a history of smoking, cough or wheezing
e. will be under anesthesia for a lengthy period of time
f. are undergoing an abdominal or a thoracic operation

Documenting the progression of pulmonary disease - restrictive or obstructive

Documenting the effectiveness of therapeutic intervention

Safe Use of Medicines

Medicines, including vaccines are used to treat and prevent many illnesses. Medicines may also be used in conjunction with other treatments. Medicines must always be used with care.

Medicines can be obtained in different ways depending on their classification:

(prescription only medicines) are dispensed by a pharmacist,
(pharmacist only medicines) are purchased after consultation with a pharmacist,
(pharmacy medicines) are available only from a pharmacy or approved rural outlet
(over-the-counter medicines) are available from retail outlets such as a supermarket or petrol station.

Labels on medicines
Take your medicines as directed on the instructions printed on the label or packaging. Taking more than the recommended dose can cause serious problems e.g. too much paracetamol can cause liver damage.

The label should tell you:

how much medicine to use (e.g. take one tablet or inhale two puffs)
how often it should be used (e.g. twice a day or every six hours or at night)
how long to use it for, if for short term treatment (e.g. for five days)
how to use a medicine that is not swallowed (e.g. apply to the skin)
The label may also give some special instructions to follow when taking the medicine for example take with food, or on an empty stomach, or avoid alcohol.

Other information may be included on the label. For example, eye drops will indicate an expiry date after which the medicine should be discarded. Some medicines may be labelled swallowed whole which means they should not be chewed or crushed.

Read the label before you start the treatment. If you are unsure about what to do, ask your pharmacist for clarification.

Always keep medicines in their original container and do not remove the label. Do not share medicines.

Interactions
Some medicines can interact with other medicines so that they don’t work as well or cause unpleasant or harmful effects. Tell your doctor or pharmacist about other medicines you are taking so that interactions can be avoided. Don’t forget to include all medicines that you use, whether they are prescribed or purchased from a pharmacy, supermarket or health food shop.

Some medicines can also interact with food. Your doctor or pharmacist will tell you which foods to avoid while taking the medicine.

You should also tell your doctor and pharmacist if you are pregnant, become pregnant while on medication or are breastfeeding, so that a medicine is not prescribed that could harm the baby.

Safety packaging
If you find blister packs or child resistant closures difficult to manage, tell your pharmacist. Medicines can be dispensed in ordinary bottles in these circumstances.

If you have young children, talk to your pharmacist about having all medicines dispensed in containers with child resistant closures.

Storage
To prevent accidental poisonings, store all medicines out of reach and sight of children.

It is important that medicines are stored correctly so that they don’t degrade and lose their effectiveness. Unless stated on the label, store medicines in a dry, cool place such as a high cupboard in a room that isn’t steamy or excessively hot. Don’t store medicines on a windowsill, in your car or in the bathroom.

Some medicines must be stored in a fridge - this will be stated on the label. Only keep medicines in the fridge if you are told to. Don’t put them in the freezer. Ensure they are stored at the back of the fridge, out of sight of children.

Disposal
Do not keep old medicines because you think you may need them in the future. Return unused medicines you have been prescribed, or medicines past their expiry date, to your pharmacist for safe disposal. Do not throw medicines in the rubbish or flush them down the toilet.
