Re: Pain in Feet and hands

[Guest guest]

It sounds like Neuropathy which is quite common with Fibromyalgia. It can also

be caused by uncontrolled diabetes.

I take Neurontin for mine and it takes the edge off the pain very well.

So interesting you would mention neuropathy and fibro. Years ago, after

experiencing tingling in my legs, my doctor sent me for tests. It was

discovered I had nerve damage in my legs and that it was probably from diabetes.

Although I realize now that I was experiencing fibro symptoms way back then,

there was no mention of it. Now that I'm once again having all these symptoms,

boy do I have questions for my doctor when I go in this time! At least I was

put on Neurontin but was only taking on a day. A while after that my dosage was

increased to 3 a day (300mg each) but continued to take only one. Now I think I

need all of them and have started taking them this week. I'm already seeing a

difference in the pain.

This list is really proving beneficial to me and I'm glad I joined.

I am glad neuropathy rang a bell with you and that you are getting some benefit

from the Neurontin.

Hi ,

I have pain in my toes and my heels and my ankles and they feel as if someone

is stabbing them sometimes each part individually, it is awful. Last night my

body burned so bad i did not want anything near it, no sheets or people just for

me to put my hand or my thigh hurt. I have a small herniated disk in my back as

well but had not had this pain until recently and am now getting hip pain when i

walk. I am35 years old and i feel about 90.

Hi everyone,

Can someone tell me if they have burning in their feet, ankles and

hands (wrists)? On the feet, it is mainly under the toes and in the

ankles as well. They feel like they are being seared, and there is a

lot of pain with it. Do you have any suggestions to help this? I have

bulging discs in the L4 and L5 are of the lower back, and am not sure

if that is what it is from or not.

Thanks for your help.

I have pain like this in my hands and feet. Mostly the ends of my fingers

and toes in the first joint. Is there any swelling associated with

Neuropathy? One of my finger nails has a deep dip down in it and on the

other hand the other finger nail is slightly bulging outwards.

Hi Tina,

Has anyone ever checked you for rheumatoid arthritis? That's a

symptom of it. You may want to ask your rheum about it.

Hi Debbie J,

I have one doctor telling me that I have the beginings of RA and my regular

doctor told me that my blood work didn't come out high enough to be listed

as having arthritis. I think that I am going to pick up the blood work and

have my Rheumatologist see it and confer with him.

Hi Tina,

Hopefully your rheumatologist can agree that you have RA. I belong

to the RA-support group which also is a very good one. A few people

there said they have sero-negative arthritis, which is negative

blood work but all the symptoms.

Good Luck,

Debbie J

I have the same pain in my feet and hands. I have had the blood test and it does

not show anything. But, I know that I have it in my feet, ankles, toes, hands,

wrist, and elbows. I hurt really bad there. Good luck!

Pain in your feet & hands is a normal part of fibromyalgia. They are part of the

tender points,not trigger points (which are different)
