They also need to keep running the same blood tests ie.ANA, HBA1C to make sure that things haven't changed or you haven't developed anything that could make the neuropathy worse.

I am in Uk not sure where you are?

I am in Lincolnshire, he said he has done all the tests and is satisfied I have SFN
The rheumatologist is convinced I don't have any condition as her one set of bloods were negative. Both have discharged me with no plan to repeat any bloods at all. I even said what about blood tests changing in the future and the Rheumy agreed they could but still no plan to re test.
I am back to my GP to just try and manage symptoms, I also see a pain consultant who just books me in for a lignocaine infusion every three months.
It's really crap care 😏
