It seems that several things that help with the fibro makes the arthritis or other conditions worsen. Lately, I am having more swelling than I used to also. When my first major flare up occurred, my feet and legs swelled so badly, my feet began cracking open and my legs and feet both burned as if someone was holding torches against them. Since that time, I have almost constant burning in my back and shoulders and increasing burning in my upper legs which is now beginning to spread further down my legs. The swelling isn't as bad as far as cracking my skin now, but it makes the burning in my lower legs increase. Do any of you have the swelling along with the burning sensations? One dr. told me the 2 weren't symptoms of the same illness but interacted together. I didn't understand exactly what he meant then and assume he meant one "fed" off the other when both occurred. I hate trying to remember all the drs. tell me because it is so easy to get confused as to what I should do for this problem instead of another. I'm already confused enough. *lol* "Never take someone for granted
Hold every person close to your heart
Because you might wake up one day
And realize that you've lost a diamond
While you were too busy collecting stones."
