Guest guest Posted December 26, 2003 Report Share Posted December 26, 2003 That's really interesting. I've had foot/heel pain for quite some time, though I've not seen a doctor about it. Sometimes it's so bad that I have to step very carefully because it feels like someone took a hammer to the bottom of my feet. Ella Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 26, 2003 Report Share Posted December 26, 2003 I had the same problem also with my feet.It was awful especially having young kids to chase after.Some days I would just sit and cry.After I started with the T3 all arthritis symptoms went away.

Guest guest Posted December 26, 2003 Report Share Posted December 26, 2003 Hi Ella, wonder if it might be related to hypothyroidism? The anti-inflammatory I take for the foot pain/arthritis does help a lot. I just want to be able to get off the anti-inflammatory completely. I have managed to cut down for quite some time without noticing pain. I'm gonna do another cut and see. Have you considered seeing a doctor about the foot pain? do you take Armour, ella? I can't remember. Hugs, Sheila Ella <jalilahs_soul@...> wrote: That's really interesting. I've had foot/heel pain for quite some time, though I've not seen a doctor about it.

Me too, I have been on Armour for a few months now but I still have this pain. I also have neuropathic pain from my knees right down to my feet. I was referred to a specialist pain clinic but they are only treating it as neuritis - I am still hoping that when I get to my optimum dose of armour it will go away.

Guest guest Posted December 27, 2003 Report Share Posted December 27, 2003 I've had this myself on and off for years and of course my mom who is now on thyroid medication as well as my daughter. And even my son has had this in the past---ugg > That's really interesting. I've had foot/heel pain for quite some > time, though I've not seen a doctor about it.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2003 Report Share Posted December 28, 2003 No, I don't take Armour, and I don't have a doc at this time, but hope to in the future.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2003 Report Share Posted December 28, 2003 Sure hope the Armour helps, , and it's probably that you're just not up to the optimum dose as you say. I've heard so much good about it that I'm sure it will eventually. Ella > Me too, I have been on Armour for a few months now but I still have > this pain.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2003 Report Share Posted December 28, 2003 Yes I am sure it's a hypo condition--just another one to drive all of us nuts!! I take advil for it and I am sure I have low thyroid as well. Mom does now she finally asked the doctor to test her after telling him about her grandaughter. All of these years gone by and it took her grandaughter to find out what was wrong with all of us. Doctors should routinely test for thyroid!!!!!!!!!! What a waste of years being tired!!!!!! besides everything else!!!!!!!!!!! > > That's really interesting. I've had foot/heel pain for quite some > > time, though I've not seen a doctor about it.

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2003 Report Share Posted December 29, 2003 You are so right - this is a condition that 25% of women have, after all!
