The majority of cases are thought to be infectious in origin.  The
majority are probably related to viral infection.  Exposure to a breeze is
NOT a factor.  Electric stimulatation is NOT standard therapy, and wasn't
in 1984, and has NOT been shown to be of any use.  Lyme is a possible
cause, but very unlikely if you didn't have a rash or tic bite, or other
symptoms.  Also, quite unlikely to get in northern CA.
