Default Small fiber neuropathy and IVIg treatments

Hi, it is believed that I have small fiber neuropathy [even though the skin test came back negative]. I have burning anywhere from head to foot that comes & goes, including burning 24/7 on my tongue. This has been happening for about a year and hasn't really gotten too much worse, but deifnitely flares up especially during stressful times. I also have had tests run on my autonomic nervous system which had abnormal results, and blood tests show an elevated polyclonal protein, indicative of autoimmune and/or inflammation.

IVIg therapy has been recommended but I have been concerned about the risks. Has anyone else tried this therapy for neuropathy and had any success?

Thanks. Kate
