Steroid neuropathy?

how does one know if they have steroid neuropathy?

I had peripheral neuropathy from a chemo drug. I don't know if they are the same, so take it for what it's worth.

My feet tingled a little, and felt the way they do when they're "asleep." I stumbled a few times, because I couldn't quite feel that I was, for example, stepping on a little toy on the floor.

Within a few months of the end of treatment, the problem cleared up.

have to have a nerve mapping test done that tells how bad it is
