My neuropathy has gotten worse over the years since I was diagnosed, when I say worse it's hard to believe that full body SFN could actually get worse but it has( more burning and more numbness) I still have very bad hypoglycemia, hard to control. If cancer was the culprit of this wouldn't some blood test of shown something by now? I was diagnosed with SFN in Sept.2011 3 years ago, and I have had every blood test known to mankind. I attribute my SFN to either a DPT vaccine I received right before this all happened or my severe hypoglycemia. I don't know though, are there other tests I should ask for. Also I did have a Hpylori infection several years ago, I am having an endoscopic test done in the morning, so I will ask the Doctor to test for that. What a mess this whole thing is. My last neurology appt. was about a yeast ago, he sent me to a Endocronology Doc who also did a bunch of labs.
Still nothing unusual. I just don't know what else to do. Would love hearing your take on all this. Thanks, Jan

Jan,

Glad you are having an endoscopic test done. That should be very helpful in getting a better idea of what is going on. Please let us know what the results of the test reveal.

Prayers coming your way.
