I have had diagnosis of fibromyalgia since 2003.
Lots of other health diagnoses with chronic pain.
Last January both of my feet began to go numb with nerve pain after a nine day hospital stay with critical low sodium. Rheumatoid arthritis doctor sent me for punch biopsy of both feet. My lab
Pathology returned a diagnosis of small fiber
Polyneuropathy. My small nerves in both feet are dying as it also travels up both legs. In research I read it can affect the autonomic nervous system. I have all the symptoms heart arrhythmia’s, sluggish bowel,Retention post urine ect. Awaiting an appointment that I made 4 months ago to see
A neurologist that has a reputation for helping
With symptoms of problems that have not been
Researched or known a lot about. In my research
It saids the underlying problem is what causes
The symptoms. I am desperately trying to have
A doctor diagnosis my problem so maybe I can get pain relief and understand more. Does anyone else on site have these symptoms or have had a punch biopsy with this diagnosis?
How are you coping? I Am very interested in your
Case and opinion. Thanks for taking the time to read.
