Mywillow.
I know its incredibly frustrateing to not have an answer, despite it being obvious that something is going on. I went through 5 years of it. Numerous tests, numerous neurologist etc. The truth is, the answer was just NOT there.
Neurology is an enigma. Many patients never have their questions answered. There are more undiagnosed individuals with neurological issues, that any other branch of medicine.
My husband is a neurologist and I still went through what you are going through. It sucks, its horrible, it eats you up. Eventually I found some peace realising that getting through each day to the best of my ability, being thankful for every step, every breath, was the most inportant thing. It took years to learn to let it go.
This is not easy for you, I see that. Sometimes I just took a step back, stopped searching and I actually felt better spiritually, which helped me physically. Stress is so very destructive, and not having answers when something obviously goes wrong is VERY VERY stressful.
I wish you well.
Oh and by the way, I have funny feet and they thought CMT, but my NCS was terrific. I did have my second EMG show axonal neuropathy, I developed spasticity and got diagnosed with possible PLS, but everything got better and I have gone from using a Cane to running 4 miles.
