Anyone with Small Fiber Neuropathy (SFN)?
Post Body

I've been having progressive/spreading issues for the past year now, and was just offically diagnosed from a skin biopsy. I'm on 900mg of Gabapentin right now. We still don't know what caused it, or if it's connected to my many other issues. I was wondering what y'all's symptoms are, do we have many in common? How do you overcome this obstacles?

Mine are:

  • Difficulty walking (balance and gait problems with numbness making it overall more difficult)
  • Tremors in my hands
  • Numbness in arms/hands, legs/feet, and a little in the face; with it worsening in my legs and arms
  • Weakness in arms, hands, and legs
  • Muscle spasms
  • Some loss of fine motor skills in my hands and fingers (Difficulty using cutlery, typing, using tools, video games, grabbing things, ect)
  • Bladder & bowel problems
  • Pain worse at night
  • High level of fatigue
  • Waking up with body stiffness/sensation of being unable to move my legs

These aren't all my symptoms, but they are the ones believed to be tied in with my SFN.
