Small Fiber Neuropathy: What helps?

I have SFN with all of the usual symptoms but at some point during the day I get a "surge" of something going into my lower legs, ankles and feet. It is intense, makes walking extremely difficult. It can last a couple of hours or so and then goes away, back to "normal". Does this happen to anyone else and what/why is it? Thanks.

I get the same thing. For me it can last any where from minutes up to two weeks. as far as walking it feels like there is a piece of glass between my feet and the floor and I'm very unstable. walking in this state always ends in me falling so I've built up my arm muscles and keep different things for support around the house. I honestly have no idea why it happens. My Dr just told me its a part of SFN.
