Could your shoes be too tight? Not enough toe box room?

I use Morton Epsom lotion on the tops of the feet when I have
cramping or swelling issues.

http://www.amazon.com/Morton-Epsom-L...s+epsom+lotion

apply once a day just a little bit (a quarter's dollop for each instep)
and see what happens Nightime is best and will help you sleep too.

I have high insteps so I lace my shoes in a different pattern to take the pressure off ...really helps the toes.

This website has the lacing patterns on it, and other information in a very complete way to help with mechanical foot problems:

Toes often get deposits of calcium and/or uric acid, in some people and those hurt. Should show up in blood testing and perhaps in fingers too.

Have you ever had Xrays of the feet to see if you have sesamoid bone problems? Or spurs?

hi Pyr 2

Sorry to hear about all the diagnostic testing you have to go through. I can immagine you perhaps feel quite worrisome about all of this. It can be quite some exhausting times when one has to wait for all the test results and in all the meantime often feeling quite sick to begin with.

I too, have been going through something similar for a very long time, and apparenty, no end in sight.

I agree with the above posters regarding getting the skin punchbiosy for nerve count.

I have PN and also SFN. My first symptom of neuropathy started with the GU system and later traveled down legs to feet. It took months.
Now, at present I have symptoms of burning pain basically all over. (scalp, face included) The worst paresthesia symptoms I feel, is in my arms. In addition to the usual pins and needles burning and numbness, I have a feeling of spasm of all the musles in the arms sometimes.
AND, Mrs D, today was the day I was able to get the MORTON's EPSON lotion. I have tried it on my arms.

Pyr 2 , are these the symptoms you are feeling?

Do you have any issues with the discs in your cervical spine? Sometimes that can cause parestesia in arms if you have radiculopathy from herniated discs.
I hope the doctors will be able to give you a diagnosis soon

Best regards
Synnove
