Yes! I definitely believe stress is a trigger and also adds additional pain. When I've had a stressful couple days, those nights are the worst. I'm contemplating having my doctor prescribe a low does anti depressent type drug to see if it helps. I figure you won't know what helps you until you try it. I have intense burning in my lower legs and feet only at night. I have soft flat pliable ice bags that lay on top of my covers and putting my feet and legs near them really helps. The only thing I have found that stops the pain is oxycodone. Can't take that often though! I am going to try and go to a neuropathy clinic next because medicare pays for it. It's a 3x a week that a lot of people say works. Good luck to you.
YES - red wine helps
