Nerve biopsy test: Is it done by a neurologist or rheumatologist?

@rwinney HIiRachal. I asked my rheumatologist today about my neuropathy in my thighs and she told me Medicine doesn't have any answers. I found out for myself when the burn starts I apply a cold washcloth that really helps and stays that way for quite a while . I was told by my foot Dr to put my feet on ice when this happens . Have you ever tried this?

Hello. I'm Sunnyflower. I'm sitting under my down comforter with heat on my feet, ice gels (heavy but the best) and my hands in a rolled up heatopad. My norm. My knees are the most painful neuropathy/arthritis and cold works. The comforter keeps the icegels cold for over 2 hours, And the microwaveable heat thingy warm for hours too.
I have Raynaud's Dz goo so my feet./toes and hands/fingers get so cold they hurt! My bones ache! At the same time, my toes feel hot from the neuropathy. Like liquid nitrogen gets so cold it burns.
I hate having to be in bed so much, but to get relief, I have to. Also bc ysm so weak.
I hope this helps in some way.
Many blessings, Sunnyflower. 🙏💕

@lioness Yes ma'am I have and still do. I'm big on heat and ice. It works best for me.
