I wouldn't put too much on those diagnoses.... They are mostly for insurance billing purposes.
They can change in a flash if new symptoms appear or new blood tests reveal something new. PN is typically difficult to name and therefore treat.
PN can be a primary disease, or a secondary manifestation. Similar symptoms but different names. It can be confused with many other peripheral nerve disorders, including MS. We have a member here who finally received an MS diagnosis and she posts occasionally on MS board now. MMN also can be confused with PN.
