My PN has been progressing slower which is fine with me, I had the burning pain from the start in the hands and feet. This folding sock feeling is fairly recent, makes me want to curl my toes, kind of the beginning of hammer toe. I have got some relief from wearing those toe socks, kind of helps with keeping the toes straight. You can get them at Sierra trading post.
Well hopefully Debi, your condition can be reversed since it is so recent, watch the diet and maybe that will help get the nerves to behave.
Good luck!

From Jon_sparky:
I have the sensation in my hands now too, you can't close hands into a fist, it feels like they are swollen on the inside of the fingers and toes, but they look normal.


It's not the joints in my fingers that hurt but under the nail....the skin below the nail and the area between the 1st joint and 2nd. I'm having some of the electrical shock things and it's really sore and the skin is stiff.

My symptoms started in my feet then hands.....now in the last few months it's legs, arms, jaw, tongue numb and teeth hurt. All of this in the span of 1 year. But mine is due to type 2 diabetes and having chemo treatments of taxol/carbo.

The joys of small fiber neuropathy.
