Hi @johnbishop john I am from Pakistan. You guys are lucky to be living in the States. It is a real challenge finding a physiotherapist trained at MFR therapy in countries like mine. Based on MRI reports i was initially told by a Malayasia-based neurologist and subsequently by a Bangkok-based Neurologist in August 2017 that the burning pain and numbness at the bottom of my feet was the result of my lumbar spinal stenosis
triggered by degenerative disc disease until I visited Mayo Clinic in Rochester in June 2018 where they blamed it on small fiber neuropathy despite the fact that all the tests were negative for small fiber neuropathy. That is why they called it idiopathic. So, it would not have harmed me trying MFR therapy for my lumbar, if we had trained MFR experts in Pakistan. I thank you John and everyone in this group for supporting each others and sharing experiences.

Hi @nukhan
You say that "all the tests were negative for small fiber PN". Did you have a skin biopsy of the foot?
