Default Puzzling over something

My pn started after some heavy weeks of walking in old shoes.

I had MRI of lumbar done, MRI C spine, consulted spine surgeon, 2 neurologists at Shands - 2 podiatrists, batteries of blood work, and a Partridge in a pear treeeeee

It all came down to "idiopathic".

The lumbar pain didn't start until a couple of months after the feet started buzzing. Now, I am getting sciatic type pain below the left glute. I also find that if I lie down to sleep at night, by morning, the buzzing is gone until I get on my feet again.

Since I have no defecit in motor strength or control and had no back pain when I saw the neuros, they ruled out the lumbar.

I am starting to wonder now, however.
