Painful feet :o(

[Laughing-Gravy]

The soles of my feet, well the bones in them, have become unbearably painful. In the day, but particularly at night, they throb like mad. What is this ?

Thankyou Buenchico, but none of them fit. I have ME and fibromyalgia, so am no stranger to pain and am certainly not mardy, but this is awful. It feels like the bottom half of my legs and feet are throbbing so hard they will explode.

Plantar Fasciitis or diabetic neuropathy?

I also have terrible foot pain. They burn and throb so much sometimes I could scream with the pain, it also travels up my shins to my knees, yet they are cold to the touch. Doctor wanted to give me antidepressants for it, but said it may not work anyway, I declined the treatment.

Thats exactly it carandrog. Awful, and as I said I have ME and fibromyalgia, but am fed up with this :o(

Neuropathy is a good suggestion ,I have this and it is murder I take large doses of Oramorph ,I also wear Pain patches these are very strong I wear 4 and change every 3 days's, apart from these I take other prescription pain relief
I went to our Hospital where there is a Pain Management consultant,they are very good ,at the end of the day you are the only one who knows what pain you are in ,please speak with your Doctor and sort out some help with your pain ,once you have your prescription it is then up to you to work out what you need to relieve the symptoms.
Good Luck Kind Regards

Difficult to say without more details.
Besides M.E and fibromyalgia have you any other underlying medical conditions?
What medications are you taking?
For how long have you been experiencing these symptoms?
Are the legs swollen, and or discoloured.

douglas's suggestions are contenders BUT of course one has to be a diabetic before one develops diabetic neuropathy.

I look forward to your responses.

P.S Have you seen your GP and have you had any investigations...blood tests etc?

L-G I wish I had remedy but I have fibromyalgia and experience the same symptoms as you and carandrog, it drives me to despair & many nights I'm kept awake by it. Wheat packs that have been cooled in the fridge/freezer sometimes helps with the burning sensation.
