I will definitely ask about the MR Neurogram tomorrow in addition to MRI of brain and spinal tap. I do believe our SFN causes so many symptoms and problems beyond what doctors fully understand. They really have a hard time diagnosing and treating their patients properly. I think my Hashimoto’s started after I was pregnant and had my son (at the age of 40; now 54). It seems to be when my health started to decline.

dlydailyhope,
My Hashimoto's started at 18, I'm now 75. It started when my face started to feel so hot, I touched it my lips, were so swollen, hives all over my body. For years in and out of the E.R, Around 98 I had a Hot Nodule soooo Thyroidectomy!! Found out I had Hashimoto's! Was sent to S. Carolina to a Dr. who specializes in it. Well it came from my thyroid. I was sent to a dr. that gave injections and it worked, the Hives were in remission until I took Cynbalta, hives again. More INJ. in remission for years now.
