Burning nerve pain, with raw sore feeling under the ball of my feet

Hi ya thanks for your reply.
My diabetes is under control, and my B6 , Iron, is fine. But showing high in few of my other B’s when I had my labs done. I can’t remember the results from the B6 test done but think it was fine. I do take the Alpha Lipoic Acid but haven’t noticed any improvement, sadly only deterioration for me.
I’ve my sleep study test booked, but I’m dealing with huge drops in my BP was laying down, and huge increase in Heart Rate when standing or moving, which causes off balance, and a lot of dizziness.
My feet or so bad I can’t wear any comfortable shoes, and any walking or gentle exercise is out if the question recently between my feet & feeling I might faint.
And I’m not a great eater, I try to eat at least one meal a day, but when I do eat even though I’m overweight I eat only healthy foods mainly organic.
I’m just such a complicated case, and 16 years ago I nearly died from the Vasculitis that was affecting my small blood vessels. Myself & my husband are moving from Nevada to Arizona in a month to try help. Because I believe elevation is affecting me and hoping a warmer climate will at least help with the nerve pain.
Anyway thank you I appreciate all the help and your message was very helpful.

Yes I remember my neurologist doing those last year as was trying to figure out what was wrong with me. After I had an episode where I started stuttering and couldn’t speak properly and had body shakes, with tilting to one side. All my Thyroid tests were fine and recently my basic thyroid test was fine too. But 💯 agree with you that not the basic thyroid test needs to be checked for unusual symptoms.

Good luck with the move. My small fiber neuropathy in my feet was actually worse in hot weather but maybe the dryness of AZ may not have the same effect and hot/humid.

Also, to maintain blood sugars, it is better to eat 3-5 smaller meals/snacks that include protein and healthy fats. Eating only one meal a day is not helpful to maintain energy and blood flow and sugars throughout the day. With your blood pressure issues, it is really important you are drinking a lot of water throughout the day, too. Being dehydrated can cause lots of issues.

Oh wow awesome. It’s the first time I e heard anyone dealing with what I go through. Thank you so much. I will look into these. It would be amazing if it helped even a little.
Thanks a million 😊

Ahh not sure I can use them. As both of the socks and insoles have little ball things on them.
A tiny piece of lint feels like a rock under my feet, and I can’t even wear slipper.
But will do a bit more research and might try the insoles first maybe.
Thanks again for your help.

Oh no crap about the heat. I know when I was there in April I actually had no burning pain and was able to wear socks & shoes. So I’m hoping it will be like that when we move. We will be living up the mountain a bit so doesn’t get as hot there. Hopefully 🤞
Yeah I know it’s not great about my eating habits, I am trying to eat like half avocado, or 2 hard boiled eggs during the day or baby shrimp salads. It’s so important to eat especially with medication & diabetes. I’m from Ireland and honestly struggle with the amount of chemicals is in the food out here, that it puts me off eating, so I struggle to get an appetite.
But I’ve definitely been trying to improve and drink more water.
Wishing you the best with your small fiber neuropathy & hopefully you get relief with your pain. 😊

@cindylyn The ball things are actually pointy in order to activate the nerves in the feet. In my case, although I can't walk barefoot and need socks at night to sleep, the foot recovery socks and the neuro insoles seem to "trick" the nerves and overwrite the hyper-sensation of PN. I just got a pair of the activation insoles which are a bit softer to test in my sneakers.

Carnitine is the correct spelling It is otc I get mine from Amazon.

Yeah I’m definitely going to give them a try. But I know what the ball things do, I’m so sensitive to anything under the balls of my feet. My slip on sandal shoes have balls on the insole and I suffer worse from wearing them.
But will definitely try the ones you recommend. Thanks so much for your help, I really appreciate it.

Thank you - my PCP says to use the Asper creme with lidocaine because I'm taking gabapentin (3 - 300 mg capsules 3 times a day ) and amitriptyline at bedtime.
