This is the strangest symptom yet. It feels as though I have a heat gun pointed on the top of one foot, but there is no heat to the touch and it only lasts a short time.
I've just started Amoxi which was added to the Flagyl.
Anyone experience anything like this?

I'm guessing it's a nerve issue. I have nerve burning throughout my body, but before it started as burning in the feet, I had a feeling of heat on my legs and thought maybe I had gotten sunburned through my clothing.
Once I developed burning neuropathy, I would feel so much heat coming off of my back that it would wake me up (not sweats, just heat).
Do you have neuropathy or other nerve issues as a symptom already? If so, maybe it's a herx. I hope for your sake this is not the development of nerve issues, but given that you are in treatment, I wouldn't think so.
Good luck! Jill

Hey lucy,
this is a brand new symptom of mine, ive had it for a week now. Its the top of my left foot.
it gets very warm...and then goes away.
its not painful just an odd symptom. Im taking artemensinin for babs....and nazarol for yeast so for me it might be that.

I developed peripheral neuropathy from Flagyl. I told the nurse who didn't seem to think it was a problem, a week before I saw my LLMD, when he immediately took me off of everything.
That was 3 months ago. I am in horrific pain, and seeing a neuro who is giving me medicine to help me cope. I am faced with the realization that this may be permanent.
My advice is to be careful with the Flagyl. I would notify my LLMD at once about your symptoms.
Google Flagyl, and decide for yourself.
Best of Luck, Another Jill

No more Flagyl for me... just looked it up and I have the bad taste and unsteadiness symptoms along w/ the heat.
Thanks, it's so nice to have help dealing with all this stuff.

When I first got lyme, I would often feel like someone had dipped my foot in warm water.
