Thank you for your replies. I have had MRI's, spinal tap, a lot of blood work and 2 EMG's by neuro. I did not have skin biopsy test, he told me it wouldn't change my treatment (Gabapentin).

The part that worries me the most in non-length dependent is progression. In length dependent (distal neuropathys) people get progressively worse, the burning can affect them to such a degree they feel as though they have to stick their feet in ice water and can't wear shoes. Where does that leave us with non-length dependent............our whole bodies are affected!!!

Are yours idiopathic or caused by a systemic or auto immune illness?

What meds seem to be the best in symtomatic relief?
