Thanks for the comment

At the Neurology appointment last week she said my reflexes were now "abolished" and pin prick sensation almost non existent in my right foot and poor on the left. When I stand on a cold bathroom floor I cannot feel anything. I have been checked for SFN biopsy clear. Conduction studies 2018 were normal.
As the neurologist thinks it's much worse she is sending me for these again. Awaiting appointment. In a way I hope they show I have PN just to stop me feeling like a fraud.

Welcome, Mark D!


I hope that the neurologist can come up with some answers for you very soon.

You've been the surgery route a few times. Sometimes, unfortunately, surgery creates new problems. I hope that this time a nonsurgical treatment can be found for you.

Surgery is invasive, and I'd hesitate about opting for it.
