Sometimes just correcting a nutrient issue fixes things after a baby. Also some women get low thyroid after a pregnancy.
But then some autoimmune problems rear up then too. So it is difficult to say what is going on with you.
I'd look to your environment for sure, since your husband is having issues. Could be food (gluten) or inhaled things.
Heavy metals are sneaky for example.
You could ask for a brief steroid treatment. Have you tried aspirin? Aspirin I find (I use AlkaSeltzer because it is dissolved there) very helpful at times. But I do not use it everyday because it can lead to GI bleeding. Response to aspirin is often a clue to inflammatory PN.

Hi there, I have tried alka seltzer, it didn't work for me. My husband is a painter and decorator, i'm not sure if paint fumes or anything like that can cause issues,.we have an open fire, he is always burning all sorts of things on there, i'm just trying to think of anything it could be, strangly my sister is now being investigated for SFN, as she has had abnormal sensations all over her body, no burning but hot feelings and crawling, she spent a lot of time at mine when going through a rough patch, it is all very worrying and making me think this could be related somehow. We are a very strange family! haha
