gertie Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 I do have peripheral neuropathy in my feet & legs at times but since the winter weather has started my feet are so painful I can hardly walk. They either feel cold like their frost bitten or their burning & the weight of a sheet or socks hurts. The rest of me will be toasty warm or sweating but my feet cold. When they do start feeling warm then they are burning. When I read what I posted it sounds impossible. I can't believe that symptoms like this can be related to Dysautonomia. Is this part of this illness? thanks everyone & Happy Thanksgiving! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Becia Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 I rarely feel my feet, but when I do, it's because they are so cold feeling to me, yet when I take off my socks, my feet are sweaty. Same thing with my fingers. I've been like this for years, so I don't know if it's part of dysautonmia, but I can tell you it bites, lol.

BeforeTheMorning Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 My feet tend to get extremely cold even when the rest of me is warm. Even when I'm wearing two pairs of furry socks and I'm wrapped up in a blanket my feet can hurt because of the cold. During the winter I tend to have a hot water bottle at the foot of my bed, because otherwise my feet get so cold that they wake me up in the middle of the night! Sorry I can't help with your whole question, my feet very rarely get warm unless I've been exercising or during hot weather in the summer and then they hurt and feel kind of itchy or pricky from the blood pooling.I hope you find some way of relieving this soon,Best Wishes,Lyla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigskyfam Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 Mine too. Hot one minute cold the next. I use rice packs . One in fridge one in microwave. I've even had one side hot one side cold. That freaked my husband out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueskies Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 Mostly my feet are way too hot, like the rest of me. But then suddenly they can become painful cold. It doesn't happen often but it's disconcerting when it does.blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E Soskis Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 My fingers take the hit before my feet do. Yes, neuropathy is part of dysautonomia. Now that it is cold outside, I can hardly even walk to the mailbox without my fingers turning white and becoming painful - even with gloves it is quite painful.

Suthrngal Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Does anyone have a remedy for this? I, too, started have pin pricks in legs and feet and needle feeling and cold and burning feet...worse at times but can't discern cause. When my bp drops, my legs and hands go numb...and heavyish. I also get fasiculations in my legs and elsewhere that seems to be related to intestines (i.e. took fiber supplement and got pin pricks worse and spasms all over legs). Weird and bothersome. Keeps me up at night. One doc said low serotonin and suggested Tryptophan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
