Please don't combine subjects on the same thread - should be moved.

Oh, and are you serious?

Here's what Canada says: "Two adolescent native Canadians who presented with peripheral neuropathy secondary to the abuse of volatile hydrocarbons are described. They were initially thought to have been sniffing leaded gasoline fumes, but public health investigation revealed that they had been sniffing naphtha fumes. Naphtha contains a significant amount of n-hexane, a known inducer of neuropathy. Nerve conduction studies and nerve biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of naphtha abuse. These cases emphasize the need to specifically identify the formulation of hydrocarbons being abused. "

Muscle aches don't go away when you stop using the area which is painful; I believe PAD pain goes away following exercise -

Please only post a question once - you have quoted yourself and then asked yourself a question.
