In autoimmune based neuropathies, it can appear with or without abnormal morphology.

I am a bit surprised that you only had ONE site biopsied. There is no way to determine length or non-length dependent neuropathies unless you do more than one site. Why did they only do one? That is pretty rare, I think.

I am pretty sure other large, well known facilities, will accept outside samples for re-review. I just know for sure that Hopkins does because mine was done there and my neuro mentioned it in random conversation. I think Glenn has also brought this up before and I believe he listed several in the NY area. But I don't know about TX, David.
