Hello, I have been booked into have the above and wondered if anyone else has had them?
 
Yes a few, all came back negative. The most common neuropathy for diabetics (or pre like me) is small fibre and this can't be picked up on nerve conduction studies.
 
Yes and just recently. It was a bit uncomfortable but not painful. Turns out I have neuropathy in both feet.
 
You are basically given electric shocks to see how your nerves react. Your legs and feet jump all over the place. It isn't painful but I found it quite unpleasant
