Burning toes!

Lαrα, coming to think of it, I do wear my shoes all day while in just sat here in my chair at home. I really don't need to as I'm not going anywhere or doing anything. I'll try wearing no shoes on days like today and see how I feel!

Thanks Lαrα, I hope so!

Sorry DJ, but I have no advice for you, I just try to ignore the funny feelings I get in my feet, it's a very tight kind of feeling with constant tingling, not painful, but uncomfortable. I don't know if the Lyrica helped because I didn't stay on it long enough to find out, I would rather put up with the funny feeling than feel like crap all the time.

The longer you have it the more intense the "funny feeling" becomes.See how long you can take it.

Since we ae talking about funny feelings, for the last two days I've tried to sleep in but I take my Medication when I wake up so not taking it on time has got me some of them funny burning toes that feels like they are being loped off with pruning shears. I take the meds, they chill in less than an hour. I'm proud of the self righteous tough folks that can handle them funny feelings, I was one for two years. Most of our conditions are not improving, face it it's going to get worse down the road. Hang as long as you can, the meds are no fun.

Hey DJ, these pains started for me shortly after I left the hospital after my surgery. If they are the same, my doctor told me that it was progress. My nerves were trying to function. I picture that old hand reaching out of the grave on horror shows. That hand or part of the body may want to live, but it will never be part of anything human again!

I use Alpha Lipoic Acid for the nerve pain. It has fewer side affects than Gabapentin and Lyrica and is a lot more natural. You can google it with diabetic nerve pain.
