Default Small fiber sensory neuropothy (SFSN)

I have been diagnosed with this, anybody else?
I'm on medical leave and have been for over six weeks.
On Cymbalta and Oxycodone.
I can't have a normal life right now....

I have SFSN too. We feel mine was caused by vitamin and mineral deficiencies in turn caused by gluten intolerance. I do have as normal a life as possible. Have you had your Vit B12 levels and Vit D levels checked? I found releif with the addition of B12, of course, it doesn't happen overnight.

I meet with a Neurologist Monday, I believe it is chemical toxins, I am/was? in the Fragrance sales area for about 4 years, or maybe medication?

All my tests so far have been normal, even the nerve conduction (Ouch).
I think it is chemical.
