Thank you so much for your response, I know my Doctor said that if skin biopsy is positive he wants me to have IVIG, I still don't understand that though, does a positive skin biopsy mean my body wide numbness is caused by an autoimmune disorder even though all blood tests say I don't have an autoimmune disease? I'm so confused by all of this, I am just in so much distress over my numbness because it has spread so fast, in a matter of a few months. Thank you for any comments on this, and know I will be praying for all of us here, God is so good in all of this. Thanks, Jan
Mine spread in a matter of a few months also. I understand your distress. My blood work all comes back negative also but I have still been told that it is autoimmune. I am still searching for an answer for the neuroopathy but if I don't find it, I now ealize it doesn't matter.
What I am focusing on now is how I can get a better quality of life. That is not to say I will stop looking. I live in hope that if they find the cause they can stop it. hopeful
