Hi, I believe I have non-length dependent small fiber neuropathy. Mine travels to different parts of the body - sometimes left hand, arm, rib cage area but most consistently left side of the face and my tongue. My pain level has subsided (not gone) over the years (keeping my fingers crossed) and got off all meds (gabapentin and duloxetine). I manage it through acupuncture, diet and exercise. I hope this helps. It can get better.
