Default Injury resulting in neuropathy

Hey Everyone,

I'm new here and taking a look around. Read a few humorous posts which is nice but I know a neuropathy isn't the funniest thing to deal with.

I guess I was wondering if anyone developed PN after an injury. I messed up my feet about 3 years ago pretty bad. Damaged a bunch of tendons, ligaments and so fourth and developed arthritis. I did notice some burning pain in my feet sometime afterwards but it wasn't severe. Well about 6 months ago I got the flaming feet going on and it seemed like it went crazy. Now they burn constantly and I'm starting to have some problems in my hands and arms.

I was injured on the job and now the insurance company is going to screw with me on the neuropathy and say it's not related to the initial injuries I had with my feet. They sent me to a pain doctor and he says he's never heard of a neuropathy resulting from an injury. Sure.

Just wanted to say hello and get any thoughts or opinions.
