bamagirl Posted January 15, 2006 Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 Lately my feet and legs will burn like a sunburn when I get in a bath, even if it is a cool one. Anyone have this or know the reason? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morgan617 Posted January 15, 2006 Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 I am not sure I am spelling this right, but google erythromyalgia. Maybe that is site that can help. I have this in my feet and face. morgan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ariella Posted January 16, 2006 Report Share Posted January 16, 2006 I used to get severe burning in my feet, like I was walking on coals. I was once sent to the ER pre-dx when it got bad, and it recovered somewhat with oxygen. Of course the admitting doc wanted to know if I'm depressed. Anyway, I don't recall having the burning sensations since the POTS was accurately diagnosed and treated, so I imagine that it had something to do with blood/oxygen flow to my legs. The change in temperature getting in and out of the shower may be bringing it on. If it persists you may want to rule out peripheral neuropathy of some sort.Ariella Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vemee Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 I had this big time a little over a year ago. It finally went away after I was on cymbalta for a while, I do not know if cymbalta cured it or not. I am getting off all my meds for a study so I am curious to see if it comes back.
