Confused Is this just the beginning?

About 5 years ago I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. Recently I had an EMG and Nerve Conduction Study that diagnosed me with chronic sensorimotor peripheral neuropathy. Most of the pain, tingling, burning, stinging, zapping sensations began in my feet. Now I am noticing little burning, pinprick sensations in my lower legs and this morning my hands are tingling and numb feeling.

I am taking 50 mg of Zoloft and my PCP put me on 50 mg. of Lyrica while I wait for an appointment with a neurologist (she is supposed to be the best in my area, but it will take 6-8 weeks for her to review my records and make an appointment).

I'm not diabetic, my B12 level is normal, my sed rate level is borderline. Are there other test I should have done while waiting on the neuro appointment? Should I try any supplement(s) now?

Thanks for any thoughts!
