Call your dialysis clinic or your doctor. Make sure you reach someone. Sorry don't have reconditions otherwise.

Hello jackio
I don't know the underlying reason for your problem with your feet and I am not medical, but could it be a flare-up, brought on by dialysis-treatment?
Please speak to your doctor - or any other doctor -  as soon as possible to find out the cause.
I wish you good luck and all the best from Kristina. :grouphug;

Are you diabetic?

I have this sensation mostly at night when I go to bed. Not nearly as bad as you describe. I wonder if it might be neuropathy as I have read its common with ESRD.

My guess is you are right on with the neuropathy conclusion - My SO has the problem diagnosed - it was treated but they reduced the dosage due to CKD now working on another solution than the Lyrica which did a good job of stopping the progression.

Could it be gout?
