Hi Healthgirl

Sorry to hear your daughter is now also unwell. From your post I'm guessing you had a confirmed SFN diagnosis but no definite cause was found. As others who posted here have said it would tend to suggest an environmental cause.

I've done a quick review of some of the sites I bookmarked while searching for info on PN. Here's a couple that have some info on toxins that cause neuropathy. Some of the sites are pretty comprehensive and you may need to scroll down to find the sections on toxin neuropathy. Doing a further search on individual toxins may give an indication of whether you've had exposure to them or not.

One thing I did come across is that some insecticides can cause neuropathy - was your house fumigated prior to the symptoms appearing? Also have you had new carpet installed or other interior decorating? Sorry I haven't found anything specific on mold induced illness. Will keep looking as it is a topic that's been in the news media in my country (NZ).

All the best in your search for getting answers.
