I haven't been diagnoses with SFN, mainly because i haven't bothered to go to Doc as i have no pain which seems weird. What i do have is numb skin on my ankles so when i shower the sensation of the water on my skin is different to that of the rest of my legs, I also seems to be loosing hair on my legs (but i still have hair on my ankles), and if i stand or sit with my legs dangling down for too long (10mins or more) my feet start to sting/burn and go blue.
Does this sound like SFN? What are the treatments if i don't need pain killers?
Is it likely that this SFN is contributing to my non POTS orthostatic intolerance? Im assuming its blood pooling in my feet which causes hypoperfusion in my back muscles which seems to be what triggers my crashes.
Any other thoughts?
