Newly diagnosed small fiber neuropathy - muscle twitching and mottling

I also have type I diabetes. I’ve seen two neurologists, due to some of the symptoms you describe. I was recently diagnosed with Vitamin B12 deficiency. My neurologist believes it has caused my symptoms. In light of this, I caution those with symptoms like mine to get tested. It can cause neurological symptoms.

Do you know what tests his neurologist did?

I had skin issues, but not mottling like you describe. I hope that your son can find help.

Thanks for the reply @celia16. Regarding tests, at this time, he's had a lot of blood work and he's scheduled for a Sjogrens test (lip biopsy). Also, I know they looked at B12 levels and they were fine. I hesitate to have him have the lip biopsy since he doesn't seem to have Sjogrens symptoms (no dry eyes, no overall dryness). No root cause has been found at this time.
