@albiet Do you have a good primary care physician? If so, work with her/him about ordering this extensive list of tests: https://neuropathycommons.org/neuropathy/tests-causes-neuropathy

Unfortunately I do not . Again would love anyone in nyc to recommend

Steve,
I believe all Those tests were done in 2010 when they tested fir small fiber. In 2019 after the old dr blew me off, I went to a neurologist in another major university hospital. He took a lot of blood work, most of the same that I had in 2010. All came up for the most part fine. He was willing to give me gab or lyrica, but nervous about everything I’ve read. I’m on imipramine now and was also on cymbalta when this started, but not anymore.He also took a cervical mri but said even though herniations , he didn’t think surgery would help. Had a few other tests then gave up going to drs in May . It’s gotten bad as it’s constant, a little better when I walk.
