Hi Laura
I'm very sorry to hear of your diagnosis. I too have SFPN, for almost 4 years but, wasn't diagnosed until last Feb. I had a EMG/Nerve Conduction 2 years ago which was normal. They sent me on my way, as did the Rheumatologist and several Spine docs. I've progressed rapidly since fall of 2018. I am now scheduled for another EMG/Nerve study as per my request. My Neurologist didn't think I needed bc I don't line up for auto immune based on last year's spinal tap BUT, due to my decreased ability, weakened muscles and muscle twitching in my legs, he agreed to rule out further problems. The disease can really keep one guessing. Wish I had more for you. Sorry. All the best to you in your journey. Keep us posted and be well.
Rachel

Oops, looks like I somehow replied to an older post. Well - @lauraj155
Laura, if you're still out there, I'd love to hear how you are doing.
