Hi @skullborous, welcome to Connect. I'm bringing in other members of Connect into this discussion who have talked about burning feet related to a variety of causes. Please meet @jimhd @oldkarl@robertlclark @allegro @bookworm and @johnbishop

Skullborous, how do you relieve the burning feet, if only temporary? What specialists have you seen?

re: burning feet. My pain started as burning feet and progressed to stabbing pain and other pain I can find no words to describe the pain. I have a med pump embedded under the skin on the side of my belly which has Dilaudid (strong pain med) and Bupivicaine (like novacaine) for the Neuropathy I have which specifically is Chronic Ideopathic Demylinating Polyneuropathy. Which basically means Ideopathic - of unknown origin, Demylinating - the Mylin covering on the nerve bundles are dissolving for some reason and Poly - means both sides. My Neurologist I saw said he could do biopsies of the nerve but I have 1 of 4 types of Neurpathies and each are treated the same way - he thought it is most likely to be CIDP mentioned above. I have tried every possible medication the doctors could find and nothing helped except Lyrica. Also, for years Tylenol had no effect on my pain but now it seems to help with my burning pain SO just because you tried something in the past, after a few years try it again - our bodies are always changing and what didn't work, now helps. Good luck to all -
