With my ANA at 1:640/ speckled and positive small nerve fiber and orthostatic hypotension. The rest of my labs are normal. What would the benefit be for me to get this test. The problems are obvious, dysregulated body temp, heart palps, yawning episodes, dizziness, disorientation, sensory problems...... They will find the issues, but is there any way this test can help with determining cause?
Not sure about root cause, as you say. It might give you an idea of possible progression and if you are a planner, that will help you.

Good luck with the test, as most are very challenging.
