Hi:) Figured I'd update, after seeing a new doctor. I'm diagnosed with something called small fiber neuropathy (peripheral neuropathy). It explains a lot, but not the problems with the pain/stiffness...
thank you:) I think it's a type of peripheral neuropathy. I'll search, thanks....
I saw a new neurologist yesterday and I finally got diagnosed. I also have pinched nerves. It was pretty incredible...he COMPLETELY understood how much pain I live with on a daily basis. He's now...
Thanks:) Just took a look at my labs. CRP and ANA were negative and "RA Latex Turbid" was 11.3, so all looking good. Yeah, my temp is 100.0 right now...joint pain this morning. I'm going to have to...
Thanks. My bloods came back and they were negative! Still running a slight temp--it was 99.7 yesterday. I just don't know...my hands are still hurting me in the morning. Thanks again for your...

anyone else have any ideas of what this could be? Thanks....
My doctor suspects that I may have this...I have an appt. with a new neuro coming up soon, so we'll see what he says. The bottoms of my feet burn like...well, like fire! Nice to meet you, and so...
Thanks, Couch and Celebrate:) Yes, we do live in tick country but I wasn't going outside at all before my symptoms began. I hope all of my bloods come up negative. I actually wonder if it's just a...
Hello. I'm in my late 30's and have been dealing with chronic back/neck pain for years due to a car accident. One year ago, when I wasn't having any of the symptoms I'm having now, my allergist blood...
I don't really have a solid diagnosis. I will be visiting a new doctor who has a very long wait list so I still have some time before my appointment. I've been dealing with CP for more than a decade...
