burning leg

[cellar]

I have this terrible burning feeliing and PAIN in my upper right leg and I can hardly walk without squeezing my leg with
my right hand on the burning spot.  Now it has went into my groin and knee.  I had Guillan-Barre-Syndrome which is the nerves attacking the imune system.  Is this related? HURTING BIG TIME!

GB and Fibro are practically the same in symptoms.  One doctor that I had showed me in a big medical book she had that when she went to the index, found Fibromyalgia, and then went to the correct page it had Guillain-Barre at the top of the page.  Yes, I have had burning pain in my legs.  In fact, I occasionally have it in my upper thigh and into my buttocks.  It feels like someone has placed a hot coal deep inside each cheek.  It would wake me up in the middle of the night.  Horrible!  Please talk with your doctor about this new symptom.  I hope you have a doctor who understands Fibro/CFS.

I am sorry you are hurting. We all know that pain is no fun. Do you take medication to control your pain? If not I recommend that you consult your PCP or find a good Pain Management Clinic is you are experiencing chronic pain.

I do not know a lot about your Syndrome other than when nerves are effected it can be painful. It would make sense to me that your new pain could be related to the Guillain-Barre-Syndrome. I hate to say the obvious but I would report this new symptom to your physician.

Take care and please keep in touch. Tuck

gosh I wish I had an answer. I have it in my back.  I do apply pressure next to the pain and it does help.
