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

@johnbishop Thanks so much post the post to the neuropathycommons web site. I found a location in OR where a skin biopsy can be done. I'll ask if my neurologist can do the biopsies and have them sent to the location listed or if I have to go there personally; it's 4 hours away.
Again, thank you!
