Anyone had anything like this on their feet. I used to have a veruccas on this foot and had it treated. it went after a lot of painful treatment. could this on my foot be fibro related. not a clue what it is but it's starting to itch. started out as just 2 red dots.

That is so bizarre - I've had the exact same issue. Took months to cure painful verrucae years ago. And now I've got a dry hard area where it used to be. I don't know if it's come back or its something else. I've just noticed it recently but my verrucae was treated over a decade ago. Please let us know if you figure out what it is.

Hi, My Plantar Pustular Psoriasis started like that, ask Doctor to refer you to Dermatologist or like me, it could take years before it's diagnosed. I could show you photos but do a Google and don't go looking at anythings except the foot stuff! Sincerely

My verruca was with me for 7 years.... Every treatment failed because of my weak immune system

Hope you are luckier than me!

my verucca was there for 10 years. it was treated again after failed treatments by an excellent chiropdist and completely disappeared. all of a sudden 2 dots appeared for a while then this. I don't think it's still the verucca. the blustery one popped yesterday. xx

Have you seen a doctor about it? Looks as if it could be Psoriasis to me, but it's a very strange place for it to start.

Get your doc to refer you, you need it checking out.

I've never heard of anyone getting something like that related to fibro.

Problem is, it's too easy to just say "oh it must be the fibro that's causing it" and been doctors are too blame for this as it's the easiest option for them.

Rule of thumb is to get everything else it could possibly be checked out first, if it isn't any of them then it must be the fibro.

Good luck finding out, let us know how you get on. 🍀😊

Aww ThankYou for your kind reply. I did mention it to rheumatologist but obviously not his department lol. I saw him today as my g.p. Referred me to him due to imflammatory rate being high at 72 and my fatigue is getting worse. He is putting me on prednisolone for 2 months due to a lip biopsy being inconclusive of sjogrens so trying the stwperoids to see how I go, starting on 20mg for 2 weeks the tapering down by 5 mg ever two weeks then stop. If the steroids help he said he would put me on a medication called mycophenolate long term. Haven't heard of this but gave me a leaflet. See what happens as will keep a strict diary. He hasn't taken me of gabapentin which hasn't done anything to help me. Feeling hopeful that things are moving slowly. I feel absolutely exhausted and going to Cornwall tonight. Travelling half way tonight as I can't drive distance anymore and a long way for my friend to drive in one go. Be lovely to be in Cornwall again but so worried I will burn myself out and suffer more than ever for god knows how long. Sorry for going on but had to talk to a fellow fibro friend. Xx

You can go on as much as you like Mandypandy1969, that's why we're all here, to help each other, because we know exactly how it is. 😊

At least your doc seems to be doing something, which is more than mine does! Hope things start moving along for you and you manage to get rid of it, Heaven knows it's bad enough having to deal with fibro without anything else coming along!

Have a great time in Cornwall, it's lovely down there and don't worry about flare ups, just relax and pace yourself, you'll be fine. 😊 xx
