Shak, your symptoms are completely different than mine which started out feeling like my sock was bunched up inside my boot on my right foot. I actually bought new boots before realizing that the ball of my foot was slightly numb. I had never heard of PN and had no idea it was anything to worry about. I never had any pain, no pins and needles, just numbness.

Flash forward a year later and during a nerve test prior to Carpal Tunnel surgery's on both wrists I was informed I had PN. I have had hay fever all my life, and if those symptoms you described hit me I would have thought it was an allergic reaction to pollen, or a food since I have had both. My allergy test results were a page and a half long of triggers from grass to watermelon.
