Default Brian is quite accurate--

--I did have this testing and it came up "normal", but the skin biopsy did show rather definite small-fiber de-enervation and damage.

Part of the reason skin biopsy has replaced quantitative sensory testing, at least at facilities at which the former is available, is that the former is far less subject to individual reporting variation. (It's far more objective to count nerve fibers.)
