Hiya,

My feet, ankles and toes have been really bothering me all day today. I've got my socks off and feet on cold floor. They're really sore and I've just looked at them and they're all mottled-all red and white blotches.

Anyone else get this?

    I'm no expert hun but it sounds like bad circulation? Especially the mottled bit.. Do you suffer with that kind of thing?

    Hope someone else can help a bit more.

    Hi Tony,

    I've got Raynauds but it usually only affects my hands-they go a whitish blue colour. They're all swollen too.

    I'm going tomorrow as it happens but for something else-think I may have aggravated my stomach lining-again! I'll mention it but this particular dr does 'one complaint only' so I have to pick what one is the most important one :shock:

    what meds are you on? Do you take any stomach protectors?
    I think a lot of the doctors are going down that route new with the one problem at a time. Ours say it but are fairly relaxed about it.

    Hi Tony,

    Sorry, I logged off early last night. I got on ok at the drs. She thinks I've either got an erosion in my stomach or an ulcer. I've to stop taking anti-inflamms and she's told me to increase my Losec to 40mg in the morning and take Gaviscon. I'm back on co-codamol too instead of paracetamol. I've to get checked out to see if I've got a helicopter pilot in my tummy :lol: I never had time to ask about my feet.

    Glad tummy's getting sorted hopefully. If still a problem go back to her about feet Magenta it doesn't sound right to me. Next time request a double appointment?! Mat x

    Thanks Mat,

    I'm so tired just now, I can't be bothered going back. I have to go back for bloods next week so maybe something will show up then,
