A bad Neuro will give you gabapentin and tell you to come back in 6 months. A good Neuro will work with you to find the underlying casue and try to treat that instead of just masking the symptoms with drugs that aren’t even meant to help with nerve pain. I think find the cause is the most important thing and having the biopsy will help you move forward in the process.
