I hope you get some answers!! It took me months of referrals and tests to get a diagnosis. The Dr who really got things rolling was a rehab doctor; I wasn’t sure it was worth waiting for, but she had so much experience with neuropathy, and agreed that my feet and hands were “weird”. Along with potential treatments I’d never heard of, she ordered lots of blood work that led to more bloodwork. My blood is well traveled! The hematology/oncology referral resulted in my diagnosis seven months after my search began. Hang in there!

Best of luck to you! It took over seven months of waiting for consults, test results, worrying, more tests. Finally finding the answers and having a plan was a relief. Hang in there! I’m close to 71; planning on watching my darling grandchildren grow up.
