I wondered this myself. Even my neuologist at Johns Hopkins suggested a spinal tap next IF I wanted one. He admitted it was likely to be unrevealing,and agreed with my decision not to pursue further testing,but it is a pretty standard follow-up to the EMG/NCS, brain scan, blood tests and skin biopsy. In case of a possibly treatable neuropathy, why not?
