Edema Worsening Neuropathy Pain?
 

Has anyone experienced an increase in burning neuropathy symptoms when a drug causes considerable edema? I got a shot of testosterone and after one week became miserable due to burning even on my torso which is rarely affected in my case. Edema is a common side effect as well as general paresthesia.

I was having alot of edema from excess bradykinin, produced by an ACE inhibitor I was using for Blood pressure.

It became a huge reaction....and once I discontinued the drug, I am much better now.

This seemed to magnify my PN as well. Since I discontinued, I
am much much better. This was a slow reaction, and took place over months and years until I had a crisis of sorts. It was easy to
think I was having allergies (burning eyes), more arthritis (joint pain) too. But the edema became severe eventually.

Injections of testosterone usually are long acting with a oil to
slow its absorption. Sudden edema would not be likely in a slow
product like that.
