I have sensorimotor polyneuropathy. What used to be symptoms primarily in my left foot/lower leg is now in the other foot/leg and I am seeing mild wasting in the pad of my left palm. Left forearm is also smaller. I have burning/achey pain here. No one has any idea. Idiopathic is a term they easily throw around, but there has to be a root cause. One neuro says it's got to be autoimmune, because of my strong family history. But my blood work doesn't support it. The rheumatologist I saw was pretty thorough with the tests.

I'm happy to hear you've made progress. That is my plan...change my diet, take supplements, do PT & light exercise. I've got 20 or 30 lbs to lose. I just don't see that the doctors can help me, I feel so dejected when I leave those appointments. Money out the window and no further plan except go on pain meds. Which I am still holding off on, being stubborn.
