Hi…you probably know this…but the sensations you are having ( if it’s truly neuropathy) would likely be small fiber neuropathy…tingling, numbness etc. This type is not able to be detected on a nerve conduction study. Small fiber neuropathy is diagnosed via a skin puncture biopsy typically. FYI

Thanks for the info. Let’s see what my neurologist says on Tuesd. Maybe he’ll suggest the skin biopsies.
