I'm back from the tests....and I did eat a light breakfast thankfully

They didn't do either a tilt table or a sweat test - just checked the autonomic nerves affecting the cardiac muscle. I don't know if that has any relevance to my 'apparent' delayed gastric emptying and epigastric symptoms which have all just developed since the start of the neuropathic symptoms. Likely not! Yes/No?

I did have an asthma attack after the first test today though, so that was quite tiring.

The QST I think it was called, was easy, and I expect I had good responses because the areas they used have not been particularly troublesome areas. I don't know the relevance of that either. The scientist doing the QST said they are standard locations for testing and not necessarily tailored for an individuals symptoms.....so goodness know's if that is useful!

So all in all they'll probably find nothing --again!
