@eugenia007 I have had burning pain, starting in the balls of my feet, but by now, the pain is up to mid-calf. A neurologist gave me the diagnosis of peripheral polyneuropathy in 2013. Before the pain started I had numbness and tingling in my feet and legs.

As far as finding a treatment for the pain, every person is unique. What helps me could give you bad side effects.

Have you met with a neurologist? What you're experiencing could be neurological, but you wouldn't know for sure until some tests are done.

I had a Burst DR spinal cord stimulator implant in June of 2017, which gave me 75-80% pain relief. It was amazing, after having lived with increasing pain. I tried a bunch of medications, but nothing helped, and some had unacceptable side effects. I finally started taking morphine sulfate contin, and it takes the edge off the pain. I've been taking it for around 5 years now. It's a medication that offers pain relief when nothing else does.

There are lots of people here at Connect who have found things that help. All 5 of my siblings took Gabapentin, but it didn't do anything for me. Have you found anything that reduces the burning pain in your legs? Are you taking any pain medication?

Diabetic Neuropathy is the most common form of neuropathy, but there are other causes, and for some, no cause can be found. I haven't ever experienced anything that could cause neuropathy, except for a test that saw genetic markings for it.

Have you spoken to a doctor about the burning? Your primary care doctor may refer you to a neurologist, though you might have to ask for a referral. I hope you find answers soon.
