A neuromuscular "specialist" I just saw said he didn't think I had peripheral neuropathy at all because I "passed" the pin prick test. To hear this after 3 years of PN diagnosis by three neuros coinciding with 3-1/2 years of PN symptoms was surprising to say the least.

It took a year to get in to see this "specialist". I asked what he thought it was if not PN. He laughed and said "Well, I don't know but it was sure nice to meet you today", shook my hand and left the room.
