Autoimmune illness and small fiber neuropathy

I was diagnosed with small fiber peripheral neuropathy in 2019. It apparently is from a undetermined autoimmune disease. I was also diagnosed with chronic Lyme disease (not at Mayo) which is more than likely the cause of my neuropathy. Over the past year my symptoms have gotten worse. Pins and needles pain in my feet (hard to wear shoes) and whole body burning. It’s
becoming difficult to do much of anything. Have any of you had Lyme disease that caused your neuropathy?
