Neuropathy and possible causes

So I am uncovering some amazing things in the last week. I just got Lyme a few weeks ago and am doing a great protocol (Buehners and Doxy) but right before I started the herbs last Wednesday, I started to have this horrible excruciating Neuropathy in my legs. I get it every month on menstrual period on the very first day and only the first day. I've had it for 10 years and it's never changed a bit for better or worse. Occasionally it would skip a month. But this is the first time I've ever had it when it wasn't hormonal related! And yes I considered it was the abx or lyme interfering with hormones, but read on.

I had been taking Vitamin D, and Vitamin C, heavy supplementation. I found a few people online who blamed D for their leg neuropathy. And one person blamed citric acid on her leg neuropathy.

So I stopped both those and also stopped the detox baths just in case, and the neuropathy stopped right away. I added the detox baths back in yesterday and I'm still great, in fact legs don't hurt a bit today. SO it was possibly the Vit C or the D and I'm going to add them singularly back in. It may not even be related bc there are so many other variables but I have a feeling it is. I have never had such bad pain in my life as on Wednesday. I was taking 8k ius of D for 3 days prior and it just kept getting worse, and just lots of C but not to point of loose stools.

Just couldn't wait to post and see if anyone else has ever noticed anything else like this? BTW I never knew it was neuropathy but I am 90% sure now that's exactly what it is. Hormone based neuro is a thing I just found out!

I also have been tested to see if I had blood clots, blood clotting disorder or other issues in legs back years ago but it was negative and no one could ever figure it out.

Lyme is known to cause autoimmune neuropathy. Don't know if maybe it's just intensifying your preexisting condition? Usually shows up 2-4 weeks after onset of infection as that's how long it takes antibodies to peak. It can cause a few types of neuropathy but in essence many of them are low grade variants of guillaine barre syndrome/CIDP. Though it can also cause small fiber neuropathy which is very painful and thought to be autoimmune.
