Being upset and scared seems to rev things up and make everyone's problems worse and many of us have to learn the hard way, but it's good advice. I was diagnosed with small fiber polyneuropathy. The skin biopsy is a test done by a neuromuscular neurologist. It took a year for me to get to the right doctor and it is an easy procedure. Also, if you are having autonomic symptoms, you might need the tilt table test.

Yes, I had my first visit with a neurologist in late June. He placed me on beta-blockers. In the past few weeks, the pain I'm feeling has been 90% in the back of my head and back of my neck, primarily on the right side. This pain was there when I first saw my neurologist. However, it was minor at the time so I feel like he paid it no mind. I see him again on August 30. I will emphasize how much pain I'm feeling in the back of my neck and behind my ears. I did some research and saw that there was something called a cervical herniated disc and occipital neuralgia. I am wondering if this could be what I have. This also reminded me that the nerve that was enlarged (when I had a ct scan) was the occipital nerve. They explained that this is why they took the MRI. But if I had a MRI and ct scan, I imagine something like a herniated disk would have been seen. I'm not really sure.
