They checked my levels when I was first diagnosed and everything came back normal.


I want to see another neurologist today, in the country I'm now living in (so they don't have access to my old records), who ordered some more tests, including a new EMG and NCS, since she says that the intense weakness I've been experiencing is not characteristic of SFN. I had those done when I was first diagnosed, along with the punch biopsy that diagnosed me, but she seems to think they should be done again.

She also ordered a bunch of blood tests, including ones for Lupus, Rheumatoid, and thyroid function, and as messed up as it is I really hope something shows up. I just need an answer. She wants to refer me to a Rheumatologist either way though, since all of my symptoms indicate that SFN is itself just a symptom.
