Weird feeling in left foot - very annoying

Evening all,

I was diagnosed with Fibromylgia in May after 4 months off work with what I thought was depression and then a very tiring and painful return to work, having to reduce my hours by more than half - only to be signed off again for the past month sad

Anyway, I had an appointment on Thursday which has rendered me immobile since, but since then I have had this really strange feeling in my left foot (most of my pain is on the left side, along with regular pins and needles in left hand and arm) but this new sensation - although painless - is really, really annoying.

I don't really know how to describe it. It feels like the sole of my foot (ball and arch) is pulsating? Or vibrating? I am absolutely shattered but laying in bed trying to sleep felt 10 times worse and I had to get up again

Has anybody else experienced this? It's only been a few days but it is driving me crazy

Many thanks for any advice

    Hi loxie....  sorry to hear you have other issues with med's and the necrotic tissue issue would be very nasty!  I know of someone who has the same healing issues even if she gets a minor cut.   Healing can turn nasty...  Very precarious indeed.  I can understand and appreciate your reservations.  Take care, and I hope remission remains for a good long while for you.  Put your feet up and have a cupper..   Good therapy aye..   :-)

    I was born with this weird sensation in my right foot it drives me mad all the time,I've been to specialists who don't know what it is. I walk the floors a lot even watch tv walking the floor. Some nights I walk the floor all night. I'm on gabapentin they are not great make me sleep a lot but if my nerve is going mad I want to end it all, I have 3 other members of my family who have it. I have this sensation 365 days a year please if you get an answer please let me know if I thought amputating my foot would get rid of it I'd do it tomorrow.no GP seems to be intrested. So if you get help that works please let me know. Jordan 32729
