Guest guest Posted October 20, 2001 Report Share Posted October 20, 2001 Everybody: I had another visit with my Dr. First it was a slipped disk, after ncv and emg it was perhaps an " early polyneuropathy " . After another visit in which my reflexes were again checked and lack of proper sensations were noted, it was said to be definitely a polyneuropathy. After more blood work diabetic, alchoholic, nutritional et al have been ruled out.I get to see another neurologist soon, maybe it then will become " ideopathic neuropathy " . Meanwhile I still stagger, stumble and cuss a lot. I know I am not typical in my symptoms but at last count something like eight relatives are diagnosed and they are not all typical either.

Guest guest Posted October 21, 2001 Report Share Posted October 21, 2001 Hi Jim, Owen here, Just a thought. You said you have eight other relatives diagnosed. Would it be possible for you to go to one of their doctors for a diagnosis? They must be familiar with your type.
