Are The Heavy Legs Due To Peripheral Neuropathy?
For several years I have had peripheral neuropathy, drug induced (nitrofurantoin), but a symptom other than the tingling and burning suddenly occurred this morning ... very heavy legs. Are they connected? Or are the heavy legs due to something else?

Hi,heaviness of legs is due to some other cause not due to peripheral neuropathy.
It may be due to lumvar spine pathology or brain involvement .
Before advising investigation I would exam you .
You are advised to consult neurologist.
Thanks
