Extreme pain in leg to foot, fibro or not? Need help can't bend to foot pain stops me. Any answers?
Have had fibro for 13 years, this is different. Pain started in groin, into hip and leg, knee and foot. If leg raised when lowering makes me come forward when touching leg down. Painful to put weight on. Not convinced its my fibro, anybody else experience any of these syptems? 3years passed now, but I still keep trying to get relief from this, any help or advice would be brilliant.
I am wondering about the same thing... Had cortisone shots for foot neuroma, only helpful in that spot. Pain radiates through all of the foot and up the side of the leg into buttocks, tailbone, sacrum and low lumbar spine. Is this a muscle or nerve thing?

The hospital treated my for nearly 1 year, saying it was my back. Presented myself to A&E, as pain was unbareable. Consultant that day told me it could not possibly be my back, it had to be my hip. Orthepedicas say not my hip. Pain clinic had me on every drug they had I think. Gapapentin was to be the cure. Never touched the pain,so, I still don't know whether nerve or muscle. My g.p injected steriod into my leg, no joy there either. The latest answer was to give me a stick and basically get on with it. Have no faith now, leg just as bad. So sorry to hear of your troubles, have you tried Gapapentin as it did help some people.
