Hi @jordanabrams30, I have small fiber PN with only the numbness. I've had the PN for 20+ years but only was diagnosed at Mayo within the last 2+ years. I've always thought I've had a good sense of smell but it may have lessened over the years. I can still smell the faint odor of ozone from my SoClean CPAP cleaner when I open the lid after it has run it's cleaning cycle so I guess it's still fairly sensitive. Good luck with your up coming appointment at Mayo...you are in good hands. I know we are all a little different but I agree with @artscaping and others here, just keep learning as much as you can about your health conditions and stay as active as you can.

@johnbishop as a follow up question, do you know if the Mayo Clinic in AZ does the skin biopsy? I know you are a patient of the Mn one but just curious. Thank you

@johnbishop thank you for the information and the support. I am definitely someone who will go full boat to find alternative treatments should conventional medicine not work. I know about the alternative vitamin regimen you have recommended to others, and I have also found a company here in San Diego that believes they have a cure for peripheral neuropathy that will go through a phase 3 trial this year. So much great research going on, I just hope to get clarity on why I am going this path if st all possible. Thank you for the support
