Default new member from NY with SFN

Hello
New to this board. I am suffering almost 7 years with foot and calf pain when standing or walking or any exertion to my legs. After visiting about 40 doctors and being wrongly diagnosed with muscle pressure and going thru an operation that did not help me at all. I was diagnosed in columbia university hospital with small fiber Neuropathy based on the skin biopsy test.
After any activity involving exertion to my legs, I get sever aching, twitching pain in my sole and calves of both legs and it leads to fatigue. The meds as you know have big side effect and provide little reliefsfn sy. The only way to avoid this pain is for me to cut down a lot on any activity and sitting down. I am fifty years old. Reading the boards I did not find so far someone with similar symptoms. I want to make sure this is SFN and talk to someone with similar symptoms or anyone that can provide any advise at all.

Thanks
Jacob
