Many doctors who are not educated in certain special things...like Lyme... or others, will not see you.

That is not because of YOU... but really a good thing. They want a more experienced doctor to take over. Think of it this way.... If you had a special car...say a diesel... and a regular mechanic said, "I can't deal with diesel engines, you need to see another".... you would accept that! It basically is the same with medicine, I'm afraid. In the end you will ultimately find the "right" doctor.

SFN is not a stand alone diagnosis... it is the result of many triggers, and other things. The only "pure" SFN is Charot Marie Tooth which is genetic, but it can also affect motor functions too.

SFN is not an end stage diagnosis.... it only describes which nerve fibers are damaged...but does not reveal the triggers or causes, of which there are many many!
