Hi Carol,

Were you diagnosed with SFN via a skin biopsy? Are you better now?

I took a test in a hospital. I forgot the name of the test. It involved wires that were placed on my skin. It was painful.

I still have the numbness in my right leg, ankle, foot and toes. Also, my left foot and toes too. I am seeing a naturopathic doctor for this. Long story. She has over 40 years of experience in this field and taking classes to always learn new things. Her name is Dr. Janet Opila-Lehman in Asheville, NC. I am taking various supplements and watching my diet. Take a food intolerance test. She told me to take the OAT test. Organic acid test. It was tests 75 different things, especially candida, which i HAVE and other issues. Pricey test, but well worth it. I also have leaky gut syndrome. My doctor and I both suspect mutated genes has a part in my problems, I also have tinnitus.
