Uuh, crap. How did you get better? Any guess what was it?

  Thanks for asking. I did get better. The thing is we never got a diagnosis with 100% certainty. I had a bad sinus infection that wasn't going away. I took an antibiotic and our best guess is that I had something called a 'post-viral arthopathy' (I probably spelled that wrong!). It took about two years to work through and I did end up taking Nortriptyline because it does have an off-label use for some of these bizarre neuropathy pains. I think my body, for whatever reason, had in insane over reaction to the antibiotics and it took a couple years to heal. The medicine helped dramatically but it took a year and a half to get there. I ended up stopping the medication after 6 years just to test if it would come back and it didn't.
