Neuropathy may be associated with metabolic abnormalities, diabetes, uremia, atherosclerosis induced ischaemia. Other age related diseases should be investigated. Treatment in your case requires management of anemia, CHF and aortic stenosis. Work up to investigate other possible etiologies should be done and treatment modified accordingly. Wishing for your recovery and health.
