I have wondered if Neuropathy could play a role in my problems. I was very overweight for years and had terrible posture, my problems showed up on the heels of weight loss and posture correction. I have wondered if some how I did not damage the nerves in my spine with the extra lode I put on them.

Excellent point. After five years at a sedentary, stressful job, I gained 25 pounds, developed abysmal posture, and my fascics (and pain) doubled. I'm now taking physical therapy and trying to undo the damage. Thanks for the post; it makes a lot of sense.
