new member - small fiber neuropathy
Hello, I am new here.
I am a 50 yr female just diagnosed after a year of horrible pain with small fiber neuropathy - a punch biopsy diagnosis. I have been on so many meds I cant count them. The only thing that has worked for me is prednisone. Dr. believes the cause of my neurpathy is either the result of taking Crestor for cholesterol or an autoimmune issue. I came off the prednisone, as it was not a drug I wanted to be on forever, and went to a new neuro who did the punch test for confirmation. He started me on Lyrica which did not seem to work. I suffered a severe relapse yesterday and again I cannot walk due to the pain. Needless to say, I am starting prednisone again. Just looking for any info that can be provided on this issue.
Thanks
