I was just diagnosed with small fibre axonal peripheral neuropathy. Looking for information and suggestions. Doctor says the nerves are dying from the bottom up. (Very scary).
Doctor (neurologist) tested for a cause with negative results and is suggesting my statin and blood pressure medication which have PN as a side effect as the cause. My toes are somewhat numb and feet tingly. All the neuro tests, reflexes, cold, vibration, EMG and another test that I can't remember the name of, were positive for PM in my feet and carpal tunnel not PN in my hands. Fortunately I only have minor pain. I have read many of the postings and suggestions for B12, B6 and Folate. I have questions about how much activity, protection from cold, etc. I should do. Is there a way to regenerate nerves? Is my PN mild or serious? Any thoughts would be appreciated. |
