In the March 2009 Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation there is a study listing (Long-Term Pain, Fatigue, and Impairment in Neuralgic Amyotrophy) that says “it has become clear that neuralgic amyotrophy (NA; idiopathic and hereditary brachial plexus neuropathy) has a less optimistic prognosis than usually assumed.” Great, I thought it would be good news. They conclude “A significant number of NA patients suffer from persistent pain and fatigue, leading to impairment.”
Part of this no doubt is because if your NA is the type that recurs, you are just getting to feel a bit better from one attack when another one takes you down again. Anyone who has NA or HNA could probably come to that same conclusion.
