Hi Megan:

I was thinking about starting a new thread when I came across yours. I also have PN. It started in my hands and worked it's way to my elbows and shoulders. Then 6 months later, it started in my feet and worked it's way up to my hips.

Then about 6 months ago, I started having terrible headaches and fatigue. I can't sleep for more than two hours at a time. It flares up and stays with me for weeks at a time. This time I also have a sore throat and swollen glands. I have memory issues and difficulty concentrating. I feel like I'm in a fog. My joints also hurt, but I'm not sure if that is PN because they started to hurt before the onset of fatigue. When I have my period, my symptoms are alot worse.

Both had distinctly different onsets. I had no issues with fatigue or concentration before 6 months ago. I asked my GP about this, but she said the two do not run together.
