Default Need Some Encouragement

Here is the breakdown of what I am experiencing:

I've had Mortons Neuroma in just one foot for over a year, at times it went away and other times it got worse. No other pain besides that. I got a cortisone shot in the 3rd toe area about 3 weeks and the pain started to go away.

About 4 weeks ago, I all of a sudden experienced intense nerve shooting pain in BOTH FEET, right at the top of the entire food pad area whenever I would step off or walk on a hard surface barefooted. It felt like pins and needles or stepping on rocks. The foot pad pain came on quickly and hit both feet around the same time. It only hurt when I would step off or stand on my feet. Wearing house slippers and orthopedic inserts has helped A LOT.

My podiatrist told me that it's bad foot mechanics (flat feet). So I thought the problem was merely my flat feet and nothing more.

Here is where things got weird/bad: About 10 days ago, all of a sudden, I started to experience these nerve tingling, itching and nerve shooting pains throughout my entire body. It was random and was a 1-2 second nerve zap. It affected all areas of my body; my back, arms, even areas of my face. I also started to experience occasional muscle spasms/muscle twitches in my arms and calves.

There were hours were I would not feel any of those symptoms and other times I would feel quite a bit.

Of course now I am worried and anxious but from what I researched online it does NOT seem like MS symptoms but more like peripheral neuropathy. I have a blood test scheduled to check for diabetes, thyroid, B12, mercury, and a host of other blood tests.

Just trying to find some encouraging advice or words because I am really scared what is going on with me.
