Welcome @darrenp, Sorry to hear you have been diagnosed with idiopathic PN along with spinal stenosis. I have idiopathic small fiber PN and also have degenerative disc disease but so far I can manage my situation. I'm not sure any of us here on Connect can answer your question of being a candidate for a laminectomy. That's a conversation to have with a specialist along with a doctor that knows all of your medical history and background.

There is another discussion started by @jenniferhunter that members with similar symptoms have found helpful.
