scary times
 

having had flu and now cold started with mild pain in the elbows and knees and slight tingling in the fingers and burning in the calfs doctor said was a nerve reaction to the infection and could last a month give me gabapentin x3 a day 100mg. after 4 days I feel a lot worse I now have burning in my feet and tingling and tingling in my forearms as well as the rest could this be due to high stress ?? as I haveposted before not good with illness makes me very stressed

Get your mind off the situation
 

if possible. Having had the flu and acold after, it may well be a nerve reaction to joint inflammation and will resolve in time. Stressing about it will not help at all. For a time, you need to eat for nutrition. Cut out the junk if you like french fries or onion rings or anything that would be classified as a foodlike substance that has been through many processes. Figure a way to distract your mind from annoying tingles and buring. Yea I know it is easy to say. Good Luck, Ken in Texas.

thanks ken hope it is just that I will keep to fresh veg and meat for a few weeks will try the green nutri bullets thanks again

I had a similar experience bit of stress, got ill, doing a bit too much exercise, now it is everywhere. Just relax and try and get on with things, itll probably settle down within 6 months. Mine did, then i had a bad rxn to diflonac and it went downhill again. The body is a complex thing, it seems best to live simply and try and avoid unnecessary stresses.

thanks chris burning sensation is the worst thing its mild but puts me about if I rub the area theres an after burn rekon will take some getting used to thanks again guys
