Default Small fiber neuropathy

My husband has come down with neuropathy. It has progressed at an alarming rate. Within 8 months it's gone from his feet to arms,legs,face,and lungs. He's been seen by 4 neurologists an d been on gabapentin,, lyrica and amitriplene. He's had 2 doctors tell him they won't be his doctor because they don't know how to treat him. Many tests and they can't find the cause. He was told by a doctor yesterday that he's in real trouble with his feet. His skin is changing to 'baby skin' and will lose the ability to walk if they can't find the cause. This is so very frightening. Has anyone ever heard of the term 'baby skin'? Can't find any information on the web.
Would be very grateful for any responses.
