Hello @jaaade, I would like to add my welcome along with @parrot53 and others. It's good that you have already started the ball rolling to get a diagnosis with your doctor or care team. I am hoping another member with similar experience with symptoms can share them with you. I did find some information that may be helpful.

"Can neuropathy affect one side of the body?
Proximal neuropathy is a rare and disabling type of nerve damage in your hip, buttock, or thigh. This type of nerve damage typically affects one side of your body and may rarely spread to the other side. Proximal neuropathy is more common in men than in women and more common in people older than age 50."

How soon is your doctors appointment? Can you let us know what you find out?

already have seen the doc. some blood work came in last night and i have a high level of ESR.. 80 to be exact. says auto immune inflammation will sometimes do this. what worries me that it could also be indicative for lymphoma and apparently, us, sjogrens people, are susceptible to that. some more tests are pending.
