Many thanks. In bed if I move my legs or roll over, the burning goes away for a minute or so, then roars back. Make me wonder if something else--maybe spinal stenosis--could be going on too.

What specialists have you seen? Have you had a spinal MRI? I understand how unbearable the pain can be. One thing that puzzles me is that regardless what my feet felt during the day, as soon as I lie down, it feels like a switch was turned on and my feet suddenly hurt terribly with burning pain. When I wake up in the morning, my feet don't hurt. The same thing happens when I put my feet up in the recliner.

If you think that spinal stenosis is a contributing factor, I say have it checked. What I usually do is research online to learn all I can. @johnbishop Is really good at finding links to suggest that might give you some answers.

Keep advocating for yourself until you get a doctor's attention, a doctor who will listen to you and take your pain seriously.
