If you would care to share, do you know why you have this condition? Any diagnosis from the doctor?
Take care

Hi Melody, I caught a virus about 6 years ago that put me in the hospital. It seemed to have started all my neurological problems. The virus was not like anything I ever had. I had such bad joint pain I couldn't walk for a couple days. I had chest pains. And fatigue that was beyond compare.
I recently had a skin biopsy that showed Small FIber neuropathy. I'm managing to work and live fairly well considering. I get down often not knowing how much worse it may get though.
How about yourself? We're you born with Diabetes? Has the neuropathy changed or worsened? Thanks for replying. Take care
