It’s too far away for me to benefit from but I plan to tell my neurologist about all this on Wednesday and hope she doesn’t do what everyone else has done so far and look at me with total disbelief and poo poo the idea.
flatly. It’s clearly all about money and us not being a priority. If they concede that IViG or Biologics might help us then that’s a very expensive concession so it’s easier for them to lie and say there’s no evidence that it will work and make me feel like a numpty for even suggesting it as a possibility for treating SFN!
If they are doing a trial, then they obviously know the benefits!! Maybe even if you can't get on this trial, it will still open doors for you down the road with their results of the trial. Stay in contact with them about the trial...so you have any info about the results, etc.

I did look into it but I think they are looking for people with demylenating autoimmune neuropathies. Hoping I’m wrong.

I’m starting to wonder if mine is progressing to my large nerve fibres now because of a different non painful parasthesia in both arms from shoulder to finger tips. It just doesn’t feel the same as previous experiences of SFN. I posted here but no replies yet!
