I do not have autonomic neuropathy. I was tested for that and it was negative. The last test I had was a TST test that showed neuropathy on the tops of my feet, my shins and thighs. The biopsy done at the Cleveland clinic was negative for small fiber. But the tst test at university hospitals said small fiber neuropathy. I can feel everything. Just tingling.

Seven months ago I began to feel sweaty and clammy all over my entire body, all the time. Sometimes at night when I am very still I do not feel sweaty and clammy, but it returns as soon as I begin to move around. I have had a stress heart attack and suffered a TBI in a car accident four years ago, along with fractures of neck and back and ribs. I have been dizzy ever since with sometimes experiencing a vasovagil lightheadedness with nausea.
A neurologist recommended an autonomic reflex screen, but a provider here in the Phoenix area refuses to treat people with my Humana Medicare coverage. I would like to get a Mayo apt. Either in AZ or MN where we live six months of the year. How can I go about that? By the way, your post as been the only one in all these months that led to an understanding of what might be going on with me, since nobody else can figure it out after many labs and appointments.
