Hello Fellow Lupies,
I am having a NEW set of symptoms and wondered if anyone else has experienced ?? My Hands and Feet are aching and stiff..like rigid stiff!! They feel like they are asleep with severe pins and needles and swollen. The tendons in hands and feet are so tight it feels like they are constricting blood flow! Time for another Dr. Appt. I am so discouraged as most visits leave me with no answers. Thanks for your time
Thank you for responding. YES the fingers pull down and look like stone. I have major breaking in blood vessels in my feel, ankles and legs that came on suddenly. Wishing you relief.
Mine comes and goes too. I also chalk EVERY new ailment to the Lupus and have been really lax about going to Dr. as they never seem to know what to say to me. Stretching helps, heat and anti inflammatory. My feet feel like there are lumps from muscles /tendons etc in KNOTS. A good massage does wonders also... I have a "plug in " masseuse but better then nothin at all. Lol Keep in touch.

I hope you get some relief too. I tend to chalk everything that happens to me up to the lupus,but it helps to here someone else is having the same things goin on. This has been going on for well over a year it does come and go.I have woke up at night with my fingers drawn in to my palms and aching like a toothache,all I do is try to move them slowly .I hope you get thru this and it goes away quick. Just keep moving them as much as you can.Good luck and well wishes.
