Can PN have multiple causes?

You're not the only one. I also have really bad neuropathy and like you pre-diabetic. I didn't have the EMG because I didn't want to endure the pain. I also have degenerative disc in lower lumbar spine along with arthritis. I have horrible nerve pain in my legs. My back isn't as painful though. Now I have horrible nerve pain in my neck that runs into my head, face, arms, hands shoulders and half down my back. Like you I'm so confused and don't know who to turn to next. My personal opinion is I feel that the Covid and the boosters have done all this to me. I'm on 200 MG Lyrica a day. I have some goods day, but mostly bad days.

Thank you for sharing . My heart goes out to you.

Your Lyrica dose could be increased, that might help. As for the EMG, I’ve had three. I say a prayer first, go into a zone where I imagine what torture POWs have to endure, and say the “s” word when I can’t stand it. Yes, it’s an awful test, but then I live in pain every day. It gives really helpful information. Hopefully your medical team knows you are worse and need some help.
