Balls of feet hurt from IVSM?

Today is my third day of IVSM. When I got there they decided it hadn't been long enough since the last relapse so they want to do five days now...If that makes any sense. I'm a bit confused myself.  I understand, but not sure I'm explaining it right.
Anyways for some reason the balls of my feet hurt like I've been standing on them all day even though I haven't been on them much at all.  Have y'all ever felt this?

That's  scary, today is my fourth day and so far I'm amazed I am doing so good. I had a strange indescribable feeling in one of my legs today but it quickly passed not painful or anything just odd.. I even went to work today and was productive.

I guess it was all so bad last time because of the lumbar puncture.

Thanks for the info. It's a bit new to me, so I'm still learning what to expect, which is always changing.

The balls of my feet started to hurt when I was on IVSM.

However, with mine, when I walked it started to feel like my achilles tendon was going to rip off. It was really tight and pulling.  I mentioned it to the nurse at the infusion place at the hospital when I went in the next day for my next infusion. She called my neuro and he said they had to stop the IVSM immediately.  One of the side effects is achilles tendon rupture, and they didn't want that to happen.
