He had a name for it and I was curious if anyone knows what it's called. It's a part of PN, but had a separate name. I even asked him to repeat it later on in the visit, but quick forgot again...short term memory is pitiful. I think it started with an "A"...not much help, I know I'd like to research more about it, but can't without the name. Anyone have any ideas?
I believe it's called Alodynia. I get that every once in awhile. Mostly on the trunk of my body. It's yet another annoying thing to add to the list.

I too have very very short term memory. I like to blame it on the meds.

Hope you feel better soon.
