If I do have this neuropathy is it fatal? I'm 34, married with two boys 8 and 5. I just don't understand how a month ago I was tingling in the feet and now it moves all over. It's scary stuff.

It's all sensory at this point with no motor. I'm not aware of any autonomic issues. I can stand up without fainting, I go potty like normal except when I take a leak and put it back up there's always a little left over lol...dangit ok I said it I pee a little on myself but this isn't a new symptom.

Get your spine evaluated for disc herniations, or other pathologies. And also see if you have some prostatitis...as this can happen at any age for a man.

Interesting and thank you. I notice most of my issues are on the left side of my body...face all the way down to my toes. Would that be spine? |

Mine all started on the left side and I was convinced it was my spine. Ive been told by 3 neurologists and 2 spinal surgeons that it isn't. You still have a lot of tests to undergo though... Complete spine and brain MRI will probably follow the EMG.

there are blood test panels for paraneoplastic cancers that also cause peripheral neuropathy.

So this was the first lab ordered by the neurologist. I guess doesn't tell much regarding the paraneoplastic cancers or does it? Would something in this lab show up abnormal?
