Hi solson, welcome.

I don't know/can't tell where you are on the learning curve about this, so please forgive me if you've been down this path.

Here's a short (~5 min.) video from 2010 talking about the condition and work being done at Mayo.

Postsurgical Inflammatory Neuropathy-Mayo Clinic

In the video, Dr. Dyck says that he believes some of these neuropathies are treatable.
