I have developed a very debilitating condition.
The back of my neck always feels very hot and 'burning' - it is as if hair dryer or fan heater is being held against the back of my neck! I don't have this at night but it starts almost as soon as I get up and then lasts all day. On most days, this hot/burning feeling then spreads upwards to my face and also downwards to by chest and back. I then feel completely 'zonked' out (finding it difficult to work and concentrate) and can only get some limited relief if I go outdoors (but not on a hot day!) or work near an open window or in an air-conditioned environment. I have had tests and one of these suggested that I may have small fibre neuropathy. I am waiting to see a SFN specialist. From my 'Google' reading it seems possible that I may have 'non-length dependent small fibre neuropathy/ganglionopothy' - but I may be barking up the wrong tree! Has anyone with similar symptoms to mine had this diagnosed? |

Hi Jeffers,
If you would like to come and repost over on the Peripheral Neuropathy Forum: http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum20.html You will find a warm welcome from many Members with countless differing symptoms of SFN and related Neuropathies. The Stickies at the top of the Forum Page are also a mine of information. I am sorry this issue has brought you here. Dave.
