I don't know. The paper linked to above has more information than I. It's good that it offers a hypothesis and suggestions for tests. Thinking it may be an inflammatory condition, you might ask your doc to consider a prescription for a round of prednisone. See if the doc thinks that a positive response to prednisone might be diagnostic. There are also many supplements which might help if what you are experiencing is an inflammatory response.
