Hi Rina

I first started to feel a tingling in my toes which was put down by my doctor as likely B12 depletion. After the tingling became worse (about 2 months) I was sent for my first EMG when it was suggested that I probably had a neuropathy. After other tests it was quickly “confirmed” that I had sensory idiopathic peripheral neuropathy. This was about 6 months after my first signs.

Because I knew nothing about the disease then I just accepted what I was told by my neurologist and “took the pills”. I guess a lot more should have been done then to determine the cause but that was 15 years ago and the doctors knew about as much as I did.


Perhaps you can tell the folk in the know here a little more about yourself and the tests you have had. There is a lot of help to be had here.

Best wishes


Tony
