Hey glenn. I had the skin biopsy. My numbers put me above the low normal range but they didn't look great. probably less than 20th in the thigh and calf. As you've said on other posts...who knows where I was at before all this. They want to do a tap for completeness sake. Cant say im thrilled about doing a test like that that is likely to be normal.

If offered would you have tried steroids or IvIg at the time?

How do you distinguish between pain from nerve damage and from regrowth?

Did you ever have other paresthesias? I feel like water is splashed on me from time to time when it clearly hasnt.

When you say you have flares? what do you mean? pain? is it related to stress or sickness or just random? is the pain like when u 1st got sick?
Do you find that you attributed feelings that may have been normal as abnormal since you were hyper aware of all body sensations?


Did you take supplements? sometimes I feel like they make my symptoms worse... probably just random.

Sorry about the barrage of questions.
