Numbness, Tingling And Hot Burning Sensation?
So lately i have been having numbness and tingling of my finger tips, my toes and sometimes my feet and legs. The palms of my hands get extremly hot and feel like they are on fire. I am taking enbrel and have been taking arava for two months now.
I had those same symptoms while on Enbrel. Saw a neurologist. After lots of tests, it was determined the cause of this "peripheral neuropathy" was Enbrel. RA doc put me on Actemra. My symptoms went away after a few weeks of being off the Enbrel. Such a relief. After 1.5 years on Actemra, no severe or menacing side effects. It seems to be controlling my RA. However, IF I experience any type of stress, I will have what a call a "small" flare, which does not last long. I inject Actemra every week.
Every single night my feet burn after I crawl into bed. I use aveeno cooling menthol cream and really message firmly into my soles of my feet and toes. Not sure why it helps but it does
Could be it gets the blood flowing again
There is a name for it
I googled Ra and burning feet
I have the tingling and hot hands and feet. Get to a internist, it is neuropathy! Don't listen when they tell you nothing can be done. The only thing I've found so far is gabapentin to slow it down. It's caused from all the inflammation and damage caused from your arthritis flares. People with diabetes usually have it. If left untreated it will eventually burn the nerves out. You will no longer have feeling in the limbs it's affecting. There is no going back, they have no cure yet, only a way to slow it down, yet another band aid. Don't let them say they don't know, tell them to send you to someone who does. I've been trying to get a nerve induction test to verify how bad my damage is for 6 mos. I've lost feeling in first joint of my fingers, and my feet and legs are a mess. Good luck, don't stop fighting.
My hands went numb with tingling last June. I have a carpal tunnel diagnosis. Recommended I get a βnerve end β study. Discovered that 3 fingers on my right hand are permanently damaged. They hurt sooo much in cold weather. Now my Ring finger is tingling - Rheumy is going to do a cortisone shot by the corral tunnel. ππ½ππ½ππ½
That's me! Even when I was twelve-year-old the burning feeling of my feet drove me up the wall; especially during the summer months! I used to begs my family members to put wet towels in the freezer and rub them on my feet when I could no longer deal with that burning sensation. Thank goodness they always did it for me; I love them so much for doing it!
For The Past Month Have Had Numb Feet And Tingling Burning Sensations. . Anyone Had This Experience?
Does Anyone Get A Sensation Like A Bug Is Biting You But Nothing There? I'm Assuming It's Nerve Related. But Not Sure If It's RA Related.
