Yes, thats it exactly, 'Sunburn'. That is the best description of my issues; a sunburn type of pain evoked by light tough of an object or clothing. I haven't experienced any other type of burning except that.

It certainly seems like we have something similar going on, though i must say that I never had any viral episode like you mentioned - I never had any sort of illness actually which preceded all of this. It seems possible though that it was a cause for you though and whether or not IVIG will help would obviously be dependent on that assumption. I would think that if you are naturally seeing some improvement in the last 6 months it would be worth waiting to see how that pans out, maybe you would already see further improvement ahead without the IVIG?

You're right on my side though, the biopsy is the best plan for me, I need the diagnosis one way or the other before i can move forward.
