I have to say....the good days are cherished. The burning, aching days are not. I do have a bad back, so there hasn't been clear evidence that it isn't a contributing factor to my foot pain. I always had a hard time understanding how nerves in the feet can be disrupted, without pain moving along the nerves eminating from the lower back.
I believe that alcohol can also be a nasty little reminder of PN hiding in the feet.
