does anyone have very bad burning pain in feet,
both tops and bottom every morning, and then it
gets better as day goes on? is this part of lyme
or babs or bart? its not an ache, but burning,
thanks for any help and is there any med or
vitamin that might help it? ice does help,

I may be mistaken but I believe it's a classic sign of Bartonella.

I agree with btmb03. I think it is Bartonella.
I had it horribly last winter and spring. It's much better now since I have been on abx.

Hi, Radha, I sent you a really long
private message with several things to try.
Good luck!

I get burning feet, but they aren't worse in the morning...
It just happnes periodically throughout the day- sometimes only for a couple of seconds, sometimes for much longer.
I've actually found that walking around helps me- but not if I am wearing shoes/socks that make my feet hot.

I get that and mine are worse in the morning as well. Sometimes it feels like they are buzzing. It is a similar sensation to swelling. I often wonder if they are swollen but they don/t seem to be.

i have recently started getting this in my right foot about 40 min after i begin to ride my horse. this never happened in the past. i have had foot pain b4 -esp ball of the foot pain that went away with lyme tx. this is the ball of the foot-but i am sitting...and it is definitly a burning...loosening by boot may help a little but doesn't stop it
at one point i had a neuroma surgery on that foot but it didn't help-i still had pain til after high dose oral abx
i'm not on bart meds now and i can tell it is coming back cuz i'm getting nodules again in abd...i'll pay attention to see if rifampin helps when i go back on
