My achilles tendon and arches of my inner feet hurt sooo bad.

[Julietsmombless2015]

I hate complaining but Gosh it's like everywhere is so tight my tendons that connect your back to your bottom like when you bend.I knees shoulders necks an wrist and hands.I just feel it everywhere.I think I might plug in my inerzen foot massager before the baby wakes .These things are on ebay for 1 3rd the cost right now from a seller they are only like 65. normally 178. to 220.So I grabbed one it was around 75 with shipping.Make a cup of coffee in my keurig machine that things like the perfect present for a lupus sufferer.Both the massager and the coffee machine we need these little things.

Hello there...am so sorry you're continuing to have an ultra rough time with this...I do too...every day I have to work hard to keep the tendons in my legs & feet as stretched as poss...I do my physio rehab stretches which take 30min of agony...and I take my combined therapy lupus meds etc etc (I'll resist giving more detail...cause we went into how tendons are affected by lupus 3 weeks ago at your previous post about this)...these help me enormously...the rehab stretching especially helps: I can really feel the improvement for hours afterwards...until the next day...managing this tendon tightening is a lot like being on a treadmill

Massage has never helped significantly, but it does give me a sort of comfort.  And my lupus meds (especially pred & myco) are key to helping my tendons respond to the rehab & any massage my sore legs & feet get.  Wishing you all the best with this...it's good you've figured out a couple things that help you: the massager & the coffee machines 👏👏👏👏

Since your arches are especially involved...plantar fasciitis excercises first thing in the morning might be good for you:

This forum post & discussion might be some help to you with this stuff...one reply mentions a foot spa helping etc:

I get these pains my rhemy said its my fibro not lupus, the pregablin take the edge off but I'm now on my second sterile jab and that reduces the pain even more hope this helpsx

My rheumatologist says its the lupus and very common too with a flare up.My sister inlaw soon to be has lupus,wel they say"boardline to her .Whatever that is and they are giving her all those toher diagnoses as well.Fibrimiagia and several other things when she complains of the same pains I have all from lupus.I know not everything is .But during a flare up for me my cortison levels are extremely high which helps woth my back pain I usually have .BUt if I had to trade I would def want this flar up to go away and just deal with the back pain,
