I had electrical jabs. Haven't had the pothers. I have had panic attacks for decades so i don't see a relation as they are hereditary for me.

My symptoms were burning, prickling, deep pain to the bone and electrical feeling. Currently numbness and sometimes burning, the others seem to have subsided a bit.

My results (5/5/2015):

Sweat Gland Nerve Fiber Density


A. Rt Calf: 30.4 (Less than 36.5 is considered abnormal) (this is where the diagnosis of small fiber neuropathy came from)
B. Rt Thigh: (the biopsy did not yield a readable sample, but since the calf showed it that was enough for diagnosis they said.)

Epidermal Nerve Fiber Density

A. Rt Thigh: 10.08 (less than 6.2 considered abnormal - below 6.8 is low normal)
B. Rt Calf: 5.41 (less than 3.7 considered abnormal - below 4.5 is low normal)

I know that doesn't look so bad, but I am in great pain every day.
