Right so in 3 weeks we go to Florida and I have anxiety and my feet are still getting the odd pains in them I am worried that it will progress that fast that I will be in constant pain and won't be able to walk while I am there like I say they only get pains now and again
 
Please don't stress too much about it, just take comfortable shoes and have fun!!!! Stress can be a nasty thing; causing you to worry about every little thing, real or imagined....
 
Thanks I have some very comfortable shoes, the pains mainly come into my toes !
 
Hi thanks I saw my doctor last week he checked my feet said I have strong pulse in them and did the touch test and that was fine so I am confused
 
Well put it this way you might or might not have pains in your toes whilst in the UK so what difference does it make what country you are in? :confused:

Agree but I just don't want it to spoil my holiday

In that case donate the holiday to someone else 🙂

Joking apart I really can not see what your problem is, just go and enjoy yourself that's what holidays are for.
 
I know I am getting myself so worked up worrying about my feet they just feel like toothache in my toes but not all the time and not both feet at the same time so I will go armed with pain killers and try and relax
 
Happy holidays, just relax and enjoy. Comfortable shoes and pain killers you'll be fine.
 
Thanks all I have noticed the last few days my lower legs and feet have turned white for a while no numbness so I am wondering if it's just bad circulation I have got?
 
@Lisaa If you're worried, that's a good enough reason to get a diagnosis. So, phone out of hours GP or NHS 111. However, if you are prevented from travelling (very unlikely), existing travel insurance will help, but not insurance bought after you sought advice / treatment from health services.
