Nope

For a good 5 years prior to my cancer/chemo treatment my feet would hurt when I walked too much at work and then burn like they were on fire by the time I got off work. I was so busy I never gave it much thought.

I was already pre-diabetic going into chemo and we (me and my doctors) believe that I already had the SFN and the chemo just accelerated it and now I have no A or C fibers left in my feet. "Devoid" of A and C fibers is what the biopsy stated.
