Were you really anxious about taking the steroids? Could the flare have been from possible stress/anxiety? I hope you don't take offense to that-I just have noticed that for me, personally, if I am anxious about something, my neuropathy will flare pretty badly.
What infections could last this long? My only thought would be Lyme but i've already tested negative. Cytomegalovirus?

No I wasn't really anxious. Maybe a little bit the first day, but that day I felt fine. It wasn't until the second day towards the evening it started.
