I previously posted this but think it was in the wrong spot.
Neuropathy
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've been reading a bit about neuropathy and believe I may have it. I was diagnosed with Lupus, Raynaud's and Vasculitis last year. My nephrologist suspects I also have a mild Wegener's disease.
I've been experiencing a burning and sometimes severe pain in my feet and sometimes in my hands. I've even had a few occasions where my hip area had the same problem. The pain can really become horrible. It varies where it is also, usually where my toes connect and the top of my feet.
I have a Rheumatologist check up next week and will be mentioning it. I am on my feet all day (I'm a Preschool Teacher) so at first I thought it was because of that. Got some support hose, due to swelling in feet and ankles that my doctor thinks is due to all my meds. They don't always work.
Just wondered what you thought.
Thanks!
Michelle
