Burning sensations on skin pressure points, i.e. elbows, hands, feet

@anniemaggie I wish you luck. My disease is neurodegenative like MS (lots of overlap) and I understand how hard it is to find a great Neurologist. Fortunately, I found mine at Mayo in Rochester, MN even though I am from Dallas, TX. He moved to the Mayo AZ Clinic and I have followed him all my years. I have found that a Neurologist with a neuromuscular background has been more helpful than just a general Neurologist.

Thank you to everyone and your kind words. My primaries all tell me I am complicated. My Neuro & team discovered using MRS, how NAA is crucial in the formation of myelin. How the enzyme that breaks down NAA is located in oligodendrocytes in spinal cord & brain. His name was Dr James Garbern, died cancer 2011. I am in Seattle moved from mich.Terrible drs here. He was an ms specialist and children's rare Neuro diseases. He would pick up patients at airport, take them to museum while in town. Amazing. Wrote papers, etc.

I looked that up, I had never heard of it and it is many categories, some that I have. My rheumatologist sees me for my autoimmunes. I constantly have very weird episodes that no drs understsand. Interesting. At the Univ of Michigan is when I got most of my diagnoses, but I self diagnosed, sjogrens (dr called 7:30 pm to apologize I did have sjogrens after hounding him for 6 mos, lip biopsy) lupus, diabetes. I forgot to add the ehlers-danlos hyper mobile syndrome to my list, see I ignore then forget problems. Saw movement disorder specialists for finger tremors, of course could not tell me why, never went back they were so condescending.

@anniemaggie Finger tremors are commonly seen in cerebellum atrophy. They’re intermittent as opposed to resting tremors

Thanks interesting. They first thought it was parkinsons.They kept saying not essential tremors. Wanted me to see a Neuro shrink, I balked! Not happy, didn't want on my record and I was not making it up, but was being punished. My brother in law was furious( he was a vet) said to quit, sister also had ms and they keep pushing mindfulness on her & me. She died at 74 low heart rate among other things.

@colleenyoung @jimbourg8 @lisaw I developed RLS in past years and am unable to tolerate most pharmaceuticals. My antidote is to drink ap. 8 oz. of diet tonic water each night, ap. an hour-and-a-half before I want to go to sleep. The tonic water has a small amount of quinine in it and seems to do the trick for me.

I am allergic to all pain meds, causes very light all over itching. Rather have pain. I have stopped pain meds after 2 pills after surgery. I have to take two days apart. I have severe itching all over, forgot to add that on my list. I take hydroxzine for that, really helps. My Dr said itching from pain meds is very common. But I have so much itching, all over kind, another kind just on my arms related to cervical vertebrae problems, and pain meds itching. It's a wonder I keep it all straight!

Hey. This is old post but if u ever found out what was wrong pls reply. I was experiencing this on my right side all over the backside of body and I finally have an answer but it was not disease. Was dx w lupus but I really don’t think that what I have but I stay on low dose of plaquenil bec dr told me if I come off it, as I did once that it can stop working if u go on/off them. If interested in what I figured out pls reply

@jimbourg8
Have you asked your neurologist if it could be pudental nerve irritation/malagia/neuralgia? In addition, a competent physical therapist could assess whether the pudental nerve irritation is caused by internal muscles which are too tight. It's a thought.
