Hello @jeffrapp, welcome to Connect. Thank you for posting. I also have idiopathic small fiber peripheral neuropathy only I just have the numbness for a symptom in both feet and lower legs. From what my neurologist told me only about 10 to 20% of those with PN have just numbness...not that it makes it any better. I'm with you on the warm weather. For whatever reason warmer weather seems to loosen the body and help with a lot of autoimmune conditions. Since you mentioned burning feet as one of your symptoms, there is another discussion you may also be interested in reading through.

You mentioned PubMed which is a great resource to help someone be a better advocate for their own health. Have you ever used Google Scholar (https://scholar.google.com/) to find medical research type information? I use it a lot because I like the feature of being able to sort the search results by year to get the latest information.

Thanks for the tip. I didn't know that site existed.
