Sometimes coming down with a virus will give a flare in some people of pain.

Often the prodrome may be all you get...if your immune system is good...not everyone progresses to a full blown flu or whatever.

I have a lot of ebbs and flows, and have never been able to figure out a cause of either. I have kept logs of activities, food consumption, amount of sleep, glucose levels, etc...no trends or patterns have emerged.

I was a software engineer for many years, and not being able to "debug" this problem is almost as maddening as the problem itself.

I would say I am on a roller coaster...altho, I seldom get to any peaks in terms of feeling 'normal'.

I think I've gotten to the point that I really worry when I have a really good day because two things:
1. I know its not going to last
2. what comes next is going to hurt

Your hospital stay could have involved some antibiotics that are known to cause PN... can you get your records and check?
Flagyl/Tindamax, Cipro, Levaquin/Avelox, Zyvox?

You are very fortunate to have recovered though..Sometimes one HAS to use toxic things in life threatening situations. But you can be viglilant and make sure you don't use them again, if possible.
