hi, I also have these problems, but I have been reading up, and I also have constipation issues, along with hiatal hernia and acid reflux disease, and I have a bad thyroid.. what's causing all of these things to happen is my thyroid so maybe if you haven't been checked for it you should? it's a possibility.. take care and God Bless

my sister has all this including the thyroid, and docs are puzzled at first they thought it was MS, then tested for vitamin b and d deficiency and lymes and on and on. I am a nurse and I am very disturbed at the fact that many of you feel ignored. It seems that these symptoms are real and that many, many people have them and nothing is being done to research this! Anyone with help or advice for my sis would be greatly appreciated. :'(

Hi everyone I have had the paint in my hands for 4 years now and all the docs kept saying nothing was wrong. I kept food journals, I’ve kept a detailed activities journal and nothing could be found. I was told by chiropractors and doctors and specialist nothing was wrong with me. Then one day I went to a different rheumatoligist who had me so some "strange" tests and I was told I had TOS. But nothing can be done about it. I’m telling you this in hopes that you might get tested for it and find out. There are fixable forms of TOS I just don't have one. Good luck to everyone!

I'm not sure if this will be helpful or if anyone is still experiencing problems with numbness and burning sensations in their hands and feet, but I came across this thread and figured I'd share what I know. My mother had this same situation happen to her and went and had numerous tests done by general practictioners and neurologists. No findings and further frustration with no answer. Someone finally did a complete blood count (CBC), which typically was routine, but no one looked at her platelette level which as it turned out, was almost 12 times more than what it was supposed to be. This elevated platelette count is called thrombocytosis (sometimes referred to as thrombocytopenia). Anyway, she was able to get proper medication and everything is fine now....but apparently the elevated count caused the burning and tingling sensations!

I have been having pain in my feet and hands for 16 yrs. It was worse when I was pregnant but continues to get worse as time goes on. I also have facial pain which all the doctors find odd. They first diagnosed it as a sinus infection then allergies then facial nueralgia which then they started me on Nuerontin. This was 10 years ago. I continue to go from doctor to doctor in hopes they will find out what is causing the throbbing, stabbing, prickly, burning pain in my feet, hands and face. I've had everything from an MRI to all kinds of blood test and nothing shows. They have made an appointment for me at a pain clinic. I feel like I will be covering the pain that is trying to tell me it's something wrong with my body. Does anyone else have the face pain too? I'm only 45 and hope I don't have to live the rest of my life like this. I have so much to offer but just have this pain holding me back!!

I had tingling in hands and feet and achey feet, ankles and chins mostly in the afternoon and evening and a nerorologist diagnosed restless leg, however that is not it...meds did not work....I had blood work for Lyme and went on antibiotics for 8 months and did get a litttle better even though the blood test for Lyme were negative... I also tested postive for Celiac disease ( this is the latest medical illness) and you can't eat gluten.... following the diet and acupuncture weekly have given me the best results....
I don't understand how so many people have these symptoms and we get so many different diagnosis?

You all should think about autoimmune diseases, a ruemotologist is the best special to determine if your symptons might be autoimmune like Ruemotoid arthitis or lupus etc.. I have many of the same symptoms but not all and they are playing Dr. House with me. Doing very test under the sun to rule things out but not determining anything, yet and I am still not any better in fact I am worse. But all of you should look at lupus foundation web site to see if the information there might be helpful.

About a year ago i had to have a thyroidectomy done due to having follicular thyroid cancer. I have been on syntroid 150mg and i was having tingling in my hands and finger tips then it started in my legs too from my knees down they did blood work and said that my blood calcium level was low so they told me to take Oscal for a calcium supplement and vitiamin d so it would absorb the calcium. Even though i keep up with all my meds i am unfortunatley still tingling I don't understand why they won't figure out what is going on instead of pumping me with meds that isn't working.

Has anyone ever said anything about pinched nerves? I have had painful numbness and tingling in my hands spreading to my elbows. I went to the chiropractor. It was almost instant relief. Think about this as a solution. I know there are some chiropractors who are quacks, but the same can be said about doctors. I hope this helps some of you. :)

I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease in 2004. My main symptoms were numbness in the hands and feet, neck and headaches, insomnia, blood pressure issues, chronic and severe itching skin, depression and alopecia. Once I started the gluten free diet these symptoms began to subside. It took some time but I am almost symptom free years later. No more hospital stays and no more hand and feet pain which was the worst part. It took multiple specialists to figure it out.

In addition, I was only 39 when I was diagnosed after years of illness, pain and no sleep...I am so thankful that the rhuematologist I saw asked me "when is the last time you felt well?" and I answered "when I was on the Atkins diet". He ordered a transglutimase test for Celiac Disease and here I am six years later at 45 feeling better than I have in years.

I got a shot of cortisone once and it actually worked for 3 years... now I need to go get another one.. I know it's not a cure, but it helps for a while.
