Have you been tested for Celiac Disease? It can be silent (no GI symptoms) and can cause a ton of other symptoms. It’s not uncommon to have another autoimmune disease in addition to Celiac Disease. I was silent celiac and had small fiber neuropathy, osteoporosis, joint pain, ataxia, allergies, etc. I’m now gluten free. The ataxia disappeared. I still have the SFN and osteoporosis. I take Dupixent injections for the asthma and sinus issues. Might ask your doctor is you could have a blood panel to test for it. Just a thought.

The problem I am having is PPP and a few specialist did blood panels for about 8 to 10 of the most common to detect and treat including Celeac, then they all gave up. I have tried a few times on this site to get lucky and come across an answer to my situation. That is also why I am pursuing the Undiagnosed Disease Network through BJC/Wash-U that is part of the Mayo Clinic. Than you for your thoughtful response. Hope you are doing well these days.
