Initial study will be capability of winking right and left eyes independently, moving your closed mouth to left and right uniformly walking on a straight line drawn in floor straight in closed eye closing your eyes and joining both thumbs successfully ..All should indicate you are all right.

The clinic uses a feather like plastic piece and passes it over the feet.When you feel the sensation it is recorded on a foot chart.If you do not feel any sensation it is recorded accordingly.After charting your sensitivity on both the feet they will decide whether you have peripheral neuropathy or not in the feet.I used to undergo this procedure during every annual checkup.
