Hi- I haven't been on here in a while, but I thought this may be interesting, after 25 years of living with PN- I've developed topical and deeper syx on my right outer thigh. Piercing, ripping, burning, itching- you name it. It sometimes feels as if my skin is being flayed off of me
or I'm being scalped on my leg.
This has been going on for about 12 mos.
I have a new neurologist who feels it may be lower back nerves being pinched, so I get epidural injections 2 x or so per year for Sciatica, but he now gives me epidural in different area for the thigh. Hasn't seemed to help much.
I also have developed 'stocking' syndrome(?). Both feet feel as if they are wrapped tightly(to the point of squeeze hurt and numbness) with an Ace type bandage. Feet are not swollen or discolored but feel so.
Any observations? Similar Syx? Successful treatments?
Inquiring minds want to know.
