The article, from 2008, can be found here:
http://www.wellnessresources.com/hea...d_or_bad/#ref1

It is interesting stuff, and goes along with what I've been posting in other forums about adrenal hormone (cortisol is one of the adrenal hormones involved) "fatigue"/suppression and chronic/intractable pain.

What I'm wondering now (from a few statements in this article) is if there could also be some kind of connection between cortisol suppression/depletion (which I have) and PN(?) Another possible clue/lead to track down.

Thanks for posting it; I learn something every day here.
