I agree that most lists found on the internet will either be incomplete, contrary to each other, or wrong.

When reading such lists, I take them as a guide only. However, if many lists show my medication close to the top, I'd take it as a cause for concern and would likely question my Doctor.

I find it interesting that "gold" is listed. In today's culinary world (well in Australia anyways), real gold leaf is becoming more and more fashionable. Adorning deserts, it's seen as that little touch of luxury.

One has to wonder, if over indulgence could lead to PN in the future. *shrug*

It's been leading to gout for centuries...

I would say an argument could be made that overindulgence is leading to diabetic PN now, and has been since the explosion of obesity in some western cultures.

Default meds causing PN

I believe Flagyl as well is one I took this I think about the time my PN started but it was only for a wk It was for a bacterial infection so I thought I had. Turns out I had a couple stitches coming out from my hysterectomy. Fun to be put back under to take one little stitch out causing irritation 5 yrs after my surgery.

They weren't long-dissolved after you healed?

Not uncommon for this to happen. They don't always dissolve like they are supposed to. I have had stitches work though the skin for YEARS from previous procedures. I always attributed it to Sjogren's and lack of tissue moisture, but have heard many others report the same, so obviously not limited to Sjogren's.
