A bit fed up today

[Oscarlola]

Hi does anyone else's ankles and feet really hurt in the morning and if they have walked or stood to long ? And my sleep pattern is all over the place at the minute one minute I can sleep and the next I'm awake all night 🙄

Along with other parts of my body my feet can ache and feel stiff even before I have done anything! I mostly sleep well, and find it hard to wake up, but about once a month I get a night of insomnia.

Maybe a medication would help you with your sleep. Do you take anything for fibro?

Hi yes I take gabapentin it all started in my right arm and kneck which when it gets bad I can't stand the pain , i think Il ask the doctor to see what they can give me as I'm the same usually about once a month which I'm wide awake 😏 I can't stand for long or walk for very long it's as if my body has been kicked all over at the minute my sciatic nerve Down my right leg has been giving me some pain and my head feels all fuzzy 🙄 sorry about the rant I'm just a bit fed up today lack of sleep I suppose 😭

I have a burning pain in my feet and my ankles are stiff. It’s very painful to walk when I waken/if I have been sitting down for a while.

Oh aye!

My right ankle gives me grief everyday

Starts by being stiff and uncomfortable to walk on, then eases slightly but if i walk too much or sit for 20 mins it seizes back up, i get burning pain too, i also ache most days hips doen to feet but sometimes its more than just an ache - its like my bones have been frozen and put back in my body!

Sciatica doesnt help and sometimes i kick start the sciatica compensating for my ankle!

I dont sleep well, havent for over 15 years now, only get a couple hours per night so dr put me on 400mg gabapentin and i take that at 8pm, sleep has improved in general, im getting around 4-4.5 hours now but at least twice a week i dont sleep at all & always wake groggy!

Fed up most days but just get up and go - feel like im just existing at the moment!

Rant over - for now haha xxx
