Neuropathy: Numbness only, no pain

Interesting! I wonder if they'd help me. My neuropathy isn't tied to small fibers or anything except delaying a surgery for a ruptured disk that damaged my nerve roots - at least nothing else has shown up on testing (EMG's). So, I wonder if it will help me, since it's apparently from mechanical causes and so far, hasn't been tied to any other cause?

I wonder though, is it really helping since it's still spreading?

Good afternoon @debmoby. Welcome to our sharing forum. I wonder if you have been asked to participate in a punch skin biopsy on either of your ankles? You say that your neuropathy isn't tied to small fibers. Mine is from previous trauma that included spine surgery. SFN (small fiber neuropathy) is sort of a different kind of situation. I also depend on Cymbalta to control the anxiety that seems to ride along with the neuro.

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