Sorry everybody, I'm looking through some really old posts and had a question about this.

In Nov 2011 I was burned by a chemical in a very sensitive area, was in the hospital, off work more than a month, still have scars. A few months after this happened I had a major, the worst, family emergency. Then in July 2012 my PN totally kicked in, maybe it started as early as April. I had a lot of brain fog and attributed it to PTSD (at least that's what the PCP said). That was the worst year in my life, and probably will be the worst I'll ever have.

My latest theory is that whatever I have is an autoimmune reaction to the trauma. While the burn may not have actually caused the PN, it caused whatever I have to come out of it's hiding space.

Thoughts?
