Cannot Regulate Body Temperature

Have you been tested for neuropathy by a neuromuscular neurologist?
It required biopsies in the leg plus EMG/ nerve conduction test. My body does not regulate body temperature. It can be 110 in Texas and I am freezing. I wear long sleeves and keep a sweater in my car at all times plus a blanket to cover my legs.
People stare at me because they are in shorts and tank top.

I have not yet had those tests. I suspect that will be in the next round of testing. I had an EMG years ago and do recall it was not the most fun procedure. But if I could get some answers, I’d do it again. The neurologist at Cleveland Clinic felt it was not a neurological problem so no testing was done there in that regard.
Thanks for your feedback. It all helps.

I was seen by neurology at Cleveland Clinic and was told that based on my history, neuropathy didn’t seem like an issue. They had set me up with neurology to discuss the possibility of small fiber neuropathy. I have another appt with CC on the 28th. I guess it’s going to put me back at square one but I am hoping to get scheduled there again with several specialties. I really need to find some answers. Even if it’s not treatable, I need to know what’s happening.
