Please help me, my body is burning in the inside?


I am suffering from symptoms, that are causing me great pain. my symptoms are: burning in my hands and feet, my legs, and arms. Numbness in fingers, stiffness in hands, difficulty walking, ripping feeling in hands. This has been going on for a month. I know what it is NOT: reflex sympathetic dystrophy, diabetes, lupus, lyme disease, anxiety,depression, the doctors do not think it is autoimmune, inflamatory,or something wrong with the nervous system. the rheumatologist believes told me it is due to stress and basically without actually saying the words, told me i was going crazy. i know my body and i do not believe it is RSD. please if these symptoms sound familiar and aren't i mention please tell me. I just turn 17, and i have miss a month of school. this is very diabilating. I just want my normal life back. I am open to any ideas. thank you very much.

My 13 year old got RSD last year and her symptoms are extreme pain, burning, and loss of use in the hands. The loss of use came from her protecting the affected areas that hurt. One year later and we are still fighting to regain a normal life for her. She is on daily medication the helps her tolerate the constant pain. She was missing so much school, that we were forced to homeschool. Now she hurts, AND has no social life. The RSD pain triggers migraines, it's a vicious cycle. You are not crazy. Find another doctor. We found the best at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN.

It could be hormones and as such I HIGHLY reccomend you consel your parents.

It IS inflamatory if you feel as though your body is "burning" inside. My advice is not simple it is going to take A LOT of work on your part but that all depends if you WANT to get better or not. Here it is: you must buy a vegetable juicer and buy all green organic vegetables like:
2 Kale
2 Celery
6 Cucumbers
2 Spinach
2 Parsley
Ginger
Garlic
4 Lemons
Remember all ingredience must be organic. This amount of greens are going to make about one days worth of juice. Put the lemons in whole, rind and pits and all the garlic too don't bother peeling it just throw it into the juicer only use about 1 inch of ginger (it's very strong). But first you must get your body used to drinking the green juice by taking about 4oz to 8oz at a time mixed with 8oz of filtered water, until you are drinking 16oz of green juice 4 to 5 times per day and more as much as you can stand.
Greens are naturally cooling to the body this will help your inflamatory condition. However you must also give up all meats, dairy, and processed foods (anything that comes in a box or a bag). All of those products are the MAIN CAUSE of inflammatory conditions. You must also take supplements such as B complex, C, E, D and in addition a high potency multi vitamin. Take as much vitamin C as you can with Bioflavanioid Querctin with some soy protein. Take the vitamin C slowly start with 3,000 mg and go up from there otherwise you can get diahrea.
You asked for it and you got it. Now the ball is in your court. You caused your sickness and
you can make yourself better.
Good Luck
Hey, don't blame me for the mispelling. Spell check is not working.

You can't actually know that it's NOT Lyme disease, because there's no test that can definitively prove you don't have it. Many of the symptoms you describe are consistent with Lyme and/or coinfections (diseases the tick gives you at the same time it gives you Lyme.) Many people who turn out to have Lyme were first told by doctors that there was nothing really wrong with them, that it was all in their heads. If your docs supposedly ruled out Lyme, they probably gave you an ELISA test, which is known to have a very high false negative rate. (It says you don't have it when in fact you do.) Further evaluation is needed by a doc who understands Lyme and other tick-borne infections. You need to educate yourself about this complicated disease, and find a doc who understands it and can figure out if that's what your problem is or not. Best of luck to you.
