I have not yet been officially diagnosed, but I believe my immune system has gone haywire and that is what is causing my neuropathy. Are there any blood tests for viruses, etc. that I should push for? Where can I get more info. on autoimmune neuropathy?
thank you

Has your thyroid been tested? I have Hashimoto's Thyroiditis which is an autoimmune disease and when it flares up, I have major numbness and tingling in my hands and arms and sometimes tingling in my arms and feet.
If you haven't been tested for thyroid disorders, TSH, ft3, ft4 and antibodies need to be checked. It's just a simple blood test that a lot of doctors overlook.

My T3 is real high, does that mean anything?
