Lately My Feet Are Swollen And When I've Done A Fair Amount Of Walking, Very Painful. Is This Normal With Fibromyalgia?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have new symtoms emerging and I'm wondering if I have something more than fibromyalgia. My feet are really swollen and sore a lot of the time. I don't think it's water retention because I do go the the toilet often. A drink usually goes straight through me. Does anyone else have this complaint and if so, how do you handle it?

@A MyFibroTeam Member Hi yes I do get swollen feet and ankles. It isn't water retention cause my feet swell when I sit. I weird thing that happens is once in awhile my foot, one foot, swells up so bad that I can't walk and I am bed ridden until the swelling goes down. I went to the doctors and he didn't have any idea what it could be so he put me on bed rest. I had x-rays and nothing showed on it Be safe and soft hugs

Diabetes? Depending upon your age, peripheral vascular problems? Also, possibly peripheral neuropathy radiating from back problems?
Gouty arthritis?

I have swollen feet every time I walk and my ankles. It looks like I am walking on balloons! Every so often my one foot will swell up with a lot of pain and I am bedridden until it goes away it is too painful to walk on.
