Good evening @mamabear143. Welcome to Connect and you are absolutely in the right group for small fiber neuropathy. Before I introduce you to others with SFN, please tell me about your diagnosis. Did you have a skin punch biopsy? Was last March the time when you began treatment and/or medication to help with the symptoms of SFN?

My story is now quite lengthy as I have been coping with SFN for at least five years. I can assure you that I have learned a lot from this amazing group of caring and compassionate, folks also for five years. Knowledge is power and we are all advocates of sharing experiences.

What would you like to know about right now? What is at the top of your list?

May you be free of suffering and the causes of suffering.
Chris

Thank you 🙏 my dr referred me to get a punch biopsy , hopefully soon because it’s progressively so fast.. do most sfn biopsies include 3 areas for testing..?

Unfortunately my dr is hesitant about medication but my pain has been pretty debilitating, especially with the summer heat now ..

I’d like to know what’s been the best medication for easing the burning pain for most without really and side effects.. I also have alot of symptoms of autonomic neuropathy, not sure if that’s ok for this group also..

Thanks again
