HI Megan,
About the nerve/muscle biopsy......I had it in June and it's still 'tender'. I have a 4 1/2 scar on the back/outside of my left ankle. It's not an easy surgery. My ankle swelled for 2 months........which my dr. said is normal with this surgery. I have a little numbness on top of my foot and down under my foot.....but I have some feeling coming back there.
I am very happy that my dr. suggested the biopsy after all the other tests came back ok.....he didn't give up on me........many people can't say that.
Don't give up Megan.....Hopefully your gp will suggest a different Neuro....one who knows exactly what you need. Best Wishes!
