Neuropathy Weekend 20230528

My feet have been hurting all weekend. It is actually worse than that. My left big toe (#1) started hurting Thursday during the day. The attacks were pretty far apart, and the pain was not very intense. It was still bothersome, and I did not sleep well for a few days. Then the pain shifted to the toes in my right foot (#2) Friday night and was also very intermittent. The pain seemed more diffuse as I could not even pinpoint which toe was hurting.

Because of #2, I could not sleep last night until around 4:00 am. I was up moving some furniture and computers around in my home office. I finally fell asleep and just woke up 20 minutes ago. As soon as I woke up, my right big toe (#3) started hurting. The pain is spread out across the entire toe and the attacks are still minutes apart. In addition, each attack lasts about 3 to 5 seconds, which causes a lot of numbness as well. I am heading out to lunch with a friend; it would totally suck if this was just the beginning of another 24 hour painfest.

Ugh, the pain jumped back to area #2 last night as I was trying to fall asleep, and I ended up awake all night. I am so tired. Luckily today is a holiday so I do not have to work.
