Agree with you, en bloc, about not wanting to mess with the dorsal root ganglia until more of the jury comes in - and to not to mention the shingles/post-herpetic neuropaty attack of 2003. As we know, that dormant (post-chicken pox) virus emanates from the dorsal root ganglia.

Interesting that your neuro connected your neuropathy attack to the Sjogren's. My neurologist at Cleveland Clinic who had done the skin punch biopsies confirming NLD SFN called it "idiopathic," although she knew I'd been Dx'd with Sjogren's and the very abstract she'd authored mentioned Sjogren's as a cause.
