My neuropathy is thought to possibly be immune related, but this is not a definite diagnosis....more like a "best guess" from doctors because I don't really fit any reason exactly. I have taken prednisone, ivig, plasmapherisis, and rituxin for immune modulation.

My neuropathy is also probably immune without a definite diagnosis and my symptoms are mostly numbness. I feel the reduced sensation is getting worse and spreading and for the past couple of months it became difficult for me to handle small objects, I am dropping bottles caps, keys, pills etc.
Has any of the immune modulatory treatments helped your numbness or stopped the deterioration ?
