To help you manage peripheral neuropathy:
ICD-10 code: G60. 3 Idiopathic progressive neuropathy.
Idiopathic peripheral neuropathy refers to damage of the peripheral nerves where cause can not be determined. When the peripheral nerves are damaged, there are often symptoms that affect the feet.
Overview. Neuropathies are nervous system disorders that cause nerve damage. They affect the peripheral nerves, including nerves beyond the brain and spinal cord. Hereditary neuropathies are passed on genetically from parent to child. They're sometimes called inherited neuropathies.
355.9, Mononeuritis of unspecified site. Peripheral neuropathy that is not further specified as being caused by an underlying condition is assigned to code 356.9. Autonomic neuropathy not further specified is classified to code 337.9.
Idiopathic sensory-motor polyneuropathy is an illness where sensory and motor nerves of the peripheral nervous system are affected and no obvious underlying etiology is found. In many respects, the symptoms are very similar to diabetic polyneuropathy.
Idiopathic autonomic neuropathy is a disease characterized by acute or subacute onset, monophasic course over a period of several years, it is often preceded by an infection.
Peripheral neuropathy can result from traumatic injuries, infections, metabolic problems, inherited causes and exposure to toxins. One of the most common causes is diabetes. People with peripheral neuropathy generally describe the pain as stabbing, burning or tingling.
To help doctors classify them, they are often broken down into the following categories:Motor neuropathy. This is damage to the nerves that control muscles and movement in the body, such as moving your hands and arms or talking.Sensory neuropathy. ... Autonomic nerve neuropathy. ... Combination neuropathies.
Neuropathy is considered a disability by the SSA. The SSA refers to a medical guide called the Blue Book when evaluating eligibility for Social Security disability benefits.

Some forms of neuropathy involve damage to only one nerve (called mononeuropathy). Neuropathy affecting two or more nerves in different areas is called multiple mononeuropathy or mononeuropathy multiplex. More often, many or most of the nerves are affected (called polyneuropathy).
If you look in the alphabetical index under diabetes/diabetic with neuropathy it is E11. 40 (type 2 DM with diabetic neuropathy, unspecified). You cannot go with E11. 42 because that is specifically with polyneuropathy which is not documented.
Polyneuropathy or symmetrical polyneuropathy (poly- + neuro- + -pathy) is damage or disease affecting peripheral nerves (peripheral neuropathy ) in roughly the same areas on both sides of the body, featuring weakness, numbness, pins-and-needles, and burning pain.
A number of different disorders may cause polyneuropathy, including diabetes and some types of Guillain-Barré syndrome. Specialty: Neurology.
