Billygee,
I am going through the same thing that you are right now. I have had 9 different blood tests all of which come back as normal and I have a skin biopsy scheduled for this Friday. I have all the symptoms of some type of Neuropathy but not a Dx. I am assuming that the nerve biopsy I will have will be negative as well and then I am left to continue the fight on my own while my neuro scratches his head like Colombo!
Has anyone else had this issue with the tests? Do I have to sit around waiting to get worse before I get a Dx?
Any suggestions or responses are greatly appreciated!

I know how you fell.At least with me they found something with my biospys. Now i can read all my blood test online from 2001 to now.They all look good.Last dec my Ac1 was 5.2 My b-12 is low 379 and in 2001 my LEUKOCYTES was high 12.1. All my blood test done last may all look good.??? and i had a doctor said something about poor circulation. lol Nervous1 i hope the skin biopsy helps.

You are not alone I saw a neurologist and told him everything and he is also stratching his head, but unlike your doc he refuses to do anymore test because quote unquote the one emg/ncv came back normal so you are fine. Or he accuses me of researching etc.. How can I be researching when I am asking questions and describing how I feel I am not the doc he is... I m not making things up or have some sort of conversion disorder. If you have any luck or any further luck with doctors let me because I would like to see that doc.. IF anyone finds any doctor to is able to not only admit other docs mistake and see someone from the head don nd fully examine a person let me know because I would like to see that doctor.

Your tests show a reactive hypo- glycemia which can indicate insulin resistance. You can get another blood test... fasting INSULIN level, and see if that is elevated. That would confirm.

You should be watching your carb intake, and avoiding sugar, which will swing you high then low. (sugar stimulates insulin excess). Lows also affect nerves, lows starve them.

I agree with MrsD.

I would be watching those blood glucose numbers, especially 1hr post meal numbers, as that is when it spikes. Spiking numbers can cause damage to body, organs, cause PN long before a doctor ever gives you a diagnosis of diabetes.

Anytime your numbers spike above 140, damage can occur.

Doctors don't care until it's too late.

I think you accidentaly reversed your cholesterol LDL and HDL numbers, Billy.

Fried foods? There are studies coming out now showing eating fried foods increases stroke risk. This was done in Southern states that commonly have fried food more often than Northern ones.

This was done only in women for some reason, but I'd apply the warning to men as well.
http://articles.nydailynews.com/2012...ts-stroke-risk

Size of meals also affects blood sugar levels, so keeping meals smaller, and having good snacks in between will give you better numbers as well.

These treatment protocols change very rapidly today, many doctors may hold on to older ranges and ideas, so people receive very different responses from doctors today.

I am NOT seeing test results for the two most important vitamins involved with PN pain:

B12
Vit D

Did you have them done?

9 months ago my B-12 was 379 , Vit D 34 , copper 88. I'm being retested . for vit B-6, B-12, copper,and these are new > RPR, hemoglogin, immuno fixation, Serum Protein Electrophoresis, and another that shows how the blood clots at differant temperatures. I should know the results in a few weeks. In the past yr they done at least 30 blood test, too many to count.Also they found a problem with my blood cells when the did a nerve biopsy and i have issues with my back to boot.
