I had an appointment yesterday with what was supposedly a "Peripheral Neuropathy Clinic" at a large teaching hospital. The doctor I saw said I could not have peripheral neuropathy because I felt the pin prick and I was not numb. She said the test from the Therapath lab report that stated I had Small Fiber Neuropathy was suspect because she did not know that lab and only trusts the biopsies done by their own in-house hospital lab. I asked her if I could have her skin biopsy done then and she said no, because I do not have peripheral neuropathy. How does one go about finding a good neurologist? I asked her what was causing the excruciating pain, then, and she said she didn't know but it definitely was not peripheral neuropathy.
