Frown neuropathy spreading rapidly

Hi. I am looking for help with my diagnosis of idiopathic small fiber neuropathy. I tried several prescription meds, but cannot tolerate them due to myoclonus, anxiety, etc. I am now taking several supplements and have eliminated a lot of potential allergens from my diet. The pain level has gone dow about 25% but still keeps me from having any kind of a normal life.

I had small pains off and on for years that the doctors just shrugged off. Then they tried me on B12 shots. No help. Suddenly, about 4 months ago, the pain flared up and started to spread. I now have pain almost everywhere. It moves around and flares up and down and is often unbearable. It is mostly burning but some stabbing/electrical as well.

The neurologist tested me for everything she could and found no clue to the cause. Everything I have read says that whatever this is, it should be slowly progressive. This is not slow to me. In 4 months I have gone from mainly burning feet to most of my body.

Does anyone have any idea what this might be and how to deal with it?
Thank you.
