I just don't get this at all, Ragtop. If you have "only" Small Fiber Neuropathy you won't have any outward have any outward detectable symptoms. Your motor nerves are fully functional, but your sensory nerves have their knickers in a twist. Only you can feel what your sensory nerves are doing.

http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/neuro...europathy.html

For what it's worth, I saw a vascular specialist to make sure known circulation problems weren't causing my neuropathy, and was assured two different times that they don't cause the kind of symptoms I'm having.

From the Hopkins page, this is me: "A small percentage of patients with SFSN experience sub-acute onset sensory disturbances diffusely over the whole body, including the trunk and sometimes even the face. These patients have non-length-dependent SFSN and almost all cases are idiopathic."
