I encountered an article today about non–length-dependent small-fiber sensory neuropathy. I could not copy it in the Forum.
http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/1...mus.22255/full
The article says that patients with NLD-SFSN,
often develop SFSN symptoms and signs in a patchy distribution. This can include the face, upper limbs, or trunk before the lower limbs, or the latter may be involved simultaneously.
This pattern of distribution suggests that NLD-SFSN most likely represents a ganglionopathy.
Also, it says that
non-length dependent neuropathy shows reduction of IENFD on the skin biopsy.
Now I wonder, if my normal skin biopsy would fall under the non-length?
