I would say (for me) that seasons have a huge impact on PN. I have PN as well as severe autonomic neuropathy (a subset of PN) and summer is always harder on me for the the autonomic symptoms because I am completely heat intolerant. That being said, my regular PN seems worse in the winter as I don't tolerate the cold either and my feet and hands have increased pain during cold months. So basically, I have problems in both seasons, but for different reasons. I think my best season is spring (and my favorite) when temps start to warm up and neither of my conditions are suffering greatly because there are no extremes in temps...and I also have several fun things to do (like getting my veggie garden going), so I have things to take my mind off any symptoms.

I loved fall for most of my life. Now I dread it. I am not totally heat intolerate, but I will say it is different now- I have a fan on at work everyday every season. I always ran warm (my wife called me a heater) but close to 80 pounds gone I am more of a poorly constructed toaster oven.

I find storms and massive weather events jack me up starting up to 12 hoursbefore. Ihave no clue if it is related, but my notebooks indicate a pattern, though as I said it could be something else.

I am in Florida and I plan pn posting part of the experience, once my hands work better. This took a lot of backspacing to get down.

I hope you find some relief.

I have idiopathic SFN and am cold intolerant. I think there are only a couple of other people on the forum who share that trait with me. It seems to be more common to be heat intolerant.

WWhen my symptoms went ape dung in March and I was sprawled on the bed my wife tried to move a twisted cover and grabbed my ankle. I yelled out. It felt like Iceman from the X-Men was grabbing my ankle. I don't have too much alodynia (Sp) but when I do it appears it is on the rocks, which is odd as what feels like a lifetime ago beer was my game.

So it goes.

I am also much worse in the winter, cold intolerant, as well as with barometric pressure drops. I have hereditary neuropathy (CMT). It was horrible years ago when our boys had night baseball games in fall ball my legs and bottom would get so cold I had to stay in a hot shower for 15 minutes or they would be like ice for hours.
I do not go out if it is very cold now because I simply can't warm up afterwards, and the pain is severe. Mixing cold ground beef for meatballs makes my hands hurt and I have to keep running them under hot water to get through it.

I hate the cold but it is better than hot. Heat just wipes me out. However, where I live we can be -30 below like nothing. That's a bit much and not so bad at -10 below. But in the winter the ice is worse due to being afraid of slipping and falling. Can fall easy enough otherwise.

I can tell when the weather is changing and there will be a thunder storm. My wrists crack it seems. You can hear them. Never fails. It's the barometric pressure thing.

I still love autumn the best as it is usually sweatshirt weather and the leaves on the trees are so pretty. But, alas, winter is coming. And then summer.

I have both heat and cold intolerance. I can't handle the cold and my feet tend to burn a lot in winter. In the summer, everything burns and feels uncomfortable. My face will turn red if I'm exposed to warm temps. It looks as if I just ran a marathon!

My SFN also very cold intolerant. I feel some better after sweating for some reason. Interesting, when I was on hormones for menopause, my "freeze flashes", as I called intense coldness, were worse. And when I quit hormones they completely went away. Just an observation.
