Tpapik, Your going to need to correct your poll, if you want members to be able to answer it. You need to give a no I didn't option or I didn't have this test option. The last one you only have clean or abnormal. If you didn't have the test then you can't finish the poll.

You might also want the option of had skin biopsy but not qsart or thermo. If you give all possible options then members will be able to answer your poll more effectively.

Also the correct language for a skin biopsy test is "small fiber neuropathy" not peri neuropathy.

I had a positive skin biopsy and never had the other two. My neuro does qsart and skin biopsy as often these types of neuropathies are patchy and can be missed with just one of those tests. All 3 would give you the best possible chance of catching it. The skin biopsies also have to be done very specifically to be accurate. If they are done right they have the highest percentage of accuracy.

I never done one either. I never felt brave enough to get it right. At least you tried. When your better you can fix it. Though only you or a moderator can fix it.

Hope you feel better. I sent you a personal message.
