Many neuropathy issues, so why so few doctors who know?

I can understand your frustration, the first neurologist that I saw several years ago did an EMG and nerve conductivity test on me, and then proceeded to tell me that I didn't have neuropathy in my feet, but he couldn't tell me what my problem was. I ended up seeing a total of 4 doctors over the course of several years only to be told that I have idiopathic poly neuropathy, no cause could be determined. Thanks for nothing.

Ugh. Not knowing must be the worse. I know my situation, but they don't know how to fix it. In your case, you can't start with a fix without knowing the cause. Must be really frustrating.
