My legs getting weaker and weaker

My EMG was normal. I asked about small fiber neuropathy and he said I didn’t have it. So, I guess I would need a second opinion. I have worked for better control of type I diabetes and that is going well.

What treatments are available to stop progression? For those with diabetes, it’s generally keeping blood sugars in good control.

Also, about 18 years ago,I had severe weak, sore, stiff leg muscles. I could barely walk. Tests were not helpful. After about a year, it went away. So..l.idk what it was.

You may want to consider researching and taking Alpha Lipoic Acid and Acetyl L Carnitine supplements for neuropathy symptoms and nerve health. I started taking them when I learned I had small fiber neuropathy and the burning and pins/needles in my feet improved. I am not diagnosed with diabetes but my mother had type 2 diabetes and I am sensitive to eating too much sugar.
