@johnbishop Hi, John. I have very often referred to idiopathic peripheral neuropathy a idiotic neuropathy! Glad to know I am in good company! Also, a question. What is "small fiber" and how is it diagnosed?

Hi @rolyhu, My neurologist ordered a nerve conduction test along with some labs and a physical exam. The Neuropathy Commons site has a good overview explanation of small fiber vs large fiber neuropathy along with how neuropathy is diagnosed:

- Diagnosing - https://neuropathycommons.org/diagnosis/diagnosing-peripheral-neuropathy
