Symptoms of Small Fiber Neuropathy

SO WHAT TYPE OF SYMPTOMS ARE WE LOOKING FOR? LIKE WE SAID, IT'S A LOT OF SENSORY SENSATIONS.
SO WE CAN HAVE POSITIVE SENSORY SYMPTOMS, AS WELL AS NEGATIVE SENSORY SYMPTOMS. THE POSITIVE IS OF WHAT THE PATIENTS ARE FEELING, SO AGAIN, PAIN, BURNING PRICKLING, SHOOTING PAIN.
NEGATIVE IS WHAT'S NOT THERE. SO WHEN THEY'RE HAVING NUMBNESS, WHEN THEY'RE HAVING SOME COLDNESS TO THE FEET, WHEN THEIR FOOT JUST FEELS DRY, AND TIGHT.
THOSE ARE NEGATIVE SYMPTOMS THAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR.
AND OF COURSE, THAT HYPERHIDROSIS, ANHIDROSIS, WHEN THE SKIN GETS VERY SHINY, OR THE SWEAT GLANDS ARE OVERACTIVE, OR UNDERACTIVE.
THAT'S MORE OF THAT AUTONOMIC SENSORY SYMPTOM.
SO, WE DO ALWAYS WANT TO CHECK FOR THESE, OF COURSE, WHEN WE'RE GETTING PATIENTS HISTORY, CHECKING TO SEE HOW MANY OF THESE CHECK BOXES, PER SE THEY FIT INTO. DO THEY HAVE THOSE POSITIVE SENSORY SYMPTOMS, OR IS IT MORE OF THAT NEGATIVE SYMPTOM, OR ARE WE PURELY AUTONOMIC, WHICH WOULD LEAD YOU MORE INTO A LARGE FIBER NEUROPATHY.
EVEN THOUGH WE CAN SEE IT WITH SMALL FIBER, HOWEVER, IF IT'S ONLY PRESENTED AS AN AUTONOMIC SYMPTOM, THEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT LARGE FIBER NEUROPATHY.
