Has anyone here had Parsonage Turner Syndrome?
I had my first episode ever when I was 20 years old. I am currently 22 years old, going on 23. I'm very scared, because I heard that the genetic form affects those in their 20s.
However, when I saw my neurologist, he asked me if anyone in my family had what I had. I don't believe anyone else in my family ever got it (including aunts, uncles, grandparents, etc.).
But I'm still shocked at the age at which it occurred.
I had just recovered from the flu, and that very night, the heat broke down in my apartment, and I was left shivering all night, and my arm muscles were rigid, as I tried to contain body warmth. The following morning, I woke up with the horrible pain, which eventually was diagnosed as PTS.
