I would think PN would be a trigger for some people to develop Fibro (if it is in the genes for them to do so).
Not all PNers will have Fibro, and not all Fibros will have PN for their trigger.
Fibro would NOT be suspected, if only feet were involved, or hands, or whatever. Fibro typically presents with all over pain, and much of the time in muscles. I believe Fibro is a central pain disorder right now. And many doctors don't understand it, and I went to a medical conference and most of the 600 there
were doctors.
We were told that trigger point diagnosis was being dropped and is pointless. Dr. Clauw was brilliant, and friendly. Google him and there are copies of some of his presentations to be found.
I have a thread on our Fibro board based on that lecture:
