Anne Louise Oaklander Is a small fiber neuropathy researcher with Harvard medical/Massachusetts general. She has a couple of lectures on YouTube. in one of her lectures she talked about the prevalence of neuropathy amongst those with fibromyalgia. With a much higher incidence of neuropathy she would be better positioned to get grant money. It’s all about the numbers. she also has a grant to study Iraq war syndrome and its correlation to small fiber neuropathy.

Hello @polywog, Welcome to Connect. I see you have recently joined Connect and have posted in several neuropathy discussions. Thank you for joining these discussions. It is really helpful when other members with neuropathy share their story and what helps them. You may also be interested in a few other discussions and find them helpful:

Do you mind sharing what you were searching for when you found Connect?

Unfortunately, Dr, Oaklander no longer is taking new patients. I don’t know why other than all she is interested in is doing clinical trials. I thought that being a doctor means you enjoy seeing new patients and trying to help them. Guess not.
