Hey there Waddles :)

Erythomelalgia hurts like the dickens but my symptoms are only when I get hot and can be relieved if I cool the area by soaking in cold water, or putting cold air on my feet. Wondering if you experience the same thing?

I also have small fiber neuropathy.....no A and C fibers left in my feet. I only had the biopsy done at the ankle....this has only been going on a year but it is spreading. Today is the first day I've been out of bed all week.
Sweating.......mine is severe and just the upper body.....mostly my head. I get out of a cold shower and then sweat like crazy for 15 to 20 minutes.....it's so bad I have to put a hand towel around my neck...lol.....I love being outside but also have to put a towel around my neck if I'm out for an extended time. I'm in GA and it's starting to get pretty warm around these parts.
