Small Fiber Neuropathy: What helps?

@sita I’m so sorry you are having all of those issues. I only have arthritic pain and severe (to me) neuropathy in my left hand. I do at times have balance issues.
For the stomach issues ask for a CT scan with contrast and have them look for intestinal ischemia. That diagnosis means that your intestines are not getting enough blood supply.
My mom had that disorder and if they had found it earlier she may be alive today.
She had diarrhea & trowing up. In an 8 month period she lost 75 pounds and her doctors didn’t test for that disorder. Instead they told her it was in her head and to see a counselor. She even did that about 3 times before the counselor told her that there wasn’t anything wrong with her mentally.
I hope things start looking up for you soon.
Regards,
Becki

Thanks Becky. Looking back I realized Lisa’s post was from 2017!
