I’m burning


by: Barb on Thu, Mar 06 2008

It started the day after xmas, I started feeling really weak and out of breath, shooting pains in legs. I went a couple weeks like that then went to Dr. and he ordered a diebetes [diabetes] and lupus test. It came back clear.

About two weeks went by and on Feb 10 08 I started burning from the inside out all over. Went to the Dr and they thought might be shingles that hadn’t came out yet. They gave me medicine but it didn’t help. I burn so badly my arms, legs, back, front and most awful is my face. It is taking my sight from me. It is worst at night and I always feel like I’m freezing while it happens.

Also now I have electrical pains all over my body. Drs. don’t know what to say so they all say must be anziety [anxiety]. Has anyone out there felt like this? Please, please let me know.
