Default PN and Blood Disorders
Quick question, do you have any blood disorders, such as clotting related conditions and PN? If so, has your physicians felt these were connected.

I have APS (antiphosphilipid syndrome) and this is a clotting disorder. My rheumatologist feels that it is the cause of my nerve pain, so he is currently treating both issues together.

Clotting is only one type of blood disorder. The marrow production of peptides/antibodies is another issue too.
Those can clog up the blood flow seriously. The cryoglobulins will actually "freeze" and stop flow in very cold temperatures.
They can be dangerous, and people often have to move to warm places to live.
