My neurologists didn’t recommend having a biopsy and claimed that it is far from being a “gold standard”.

The article below address some of the difficulties with using this test. https://jnnp.bmj.com/content/93/9/915

The table below from another article claims that 30% of people with SFN get normal test results.

@ea1 - Thank you for sharing this information. I went for many years before seeking a diagnosis and my Mayo neurologist also did not use a skin punch biopsy as part of my testing for SFN. If you have the link to the article with the table/chart, I would appreciate being able to read it.

Updated response -- I found the article that shows the table - Thank you!
