“Peripheral neuropathy can result from traumatic injuries, infections, metabolic problems, inherited causes and exposure to toxins. One of the most common causes of neuropathy is diabetes.”

Chemo quite often causes it.

My father had burning in his feet due to neuropathy. He did develop type 2 diabetes but not long enough to have caused it.

Good luck
