Hand Pain/Foot Pain that appears quickly.

Hello everyone and Happy Friday!

I posted the other day about how good I have been feeling.  Anyway, yesterday afternoon, I had extreme pain in my mostly left hand that made it difficult to do anything.  I also had pain in my right hand but near as bad as the left. Then I noticed that my feet were starting to hurt. 

Anyway, I wake up this morning and they are back to normal!  I was wondering if anyone else has these kind of temporary flairs like this in their hands and feet?  Arthritis type things have not been a real issue for me (my issues are mostly like peripherial nerve issues) but it seems lately that I am having this "new" issue happening.  It happened about a month ago too but lasted for about a week with really bad pain in my hands so much that I couldn't open a lid to anything.

Anyhow, I'd love to hear if anyone else is experiencing this.

Thanks!

Hi Carrie,

Yes,I can relate to these pains,that's how my Lyme saga began.

Summer is right these symptoms can usually be attributed to Bartonella.

Since being on Doxy, my pains aren't as bad,my feet were so terrible that I wasn't able to stand for more than a few minutes,I am now able to go for walks with my dogs again.However I am still having issues with my thumbs,the pains come and go at random,today they are hellish!

I know that Lyme attacks collagen as well as muscle tissue and that even when the disease has been addressed, it can take months ,sometimes years for the body to regenerate and recover from the devastation wreaked by Lyme.

So, I guess my question is,have you been tested for Bart?
It really sounds as if this is causing your problems,I hope you can catch it before it becomes chronic because the pain can get unbearable.

Wishing you luck
