does anyone find that in warm weather their neuropathy isnt so bad and does not hurt as much or is it just me?

The cold always effects my hands and feet. I don't really notice the neuropathy in warm weather. Sure, the loss of sensation in the feet remains but the itch is much less and the feeling of being wet goes. I only realise that my hands are affected by neuropathy when it is not warm. Then my fingers hurt, even with gloves on.
 
@gail2 warm weather can indeed improve blood flow for some people, but that is not the case for others, like most things in life it varies.

For me, I would say yes, warm weather does improve what little neuropathy I have
 
thanks guys
