Did they do a small fiber neuropathy skin punch biopsy? The multiple rounds of chemo may have affected the small nerve fibers. Did you have a MRI of your cervical and lumbar spine to see if you have any spinal cord/nerve compression? If the EMG is abnormal, you should find out exactly what that means. EMG can tell if a nerve is compressed and causing radiating symptoms to arms/hands and legs/feet.

Wow. No they did not. They said next step Spinal Tap. I will definitely message both Doctors on Tuesday. I never heard of those tests. Were you diagnosed with CIPD but thought it was just Neuropathy? As I said in my original message, my Neuropathy started almost 3 plus years after Chemotherapy Treatment for BC. Never had Neuropathy before. Came out of nowhere. I also have no Reflexes. Thank you so much. 🙏🏻
