Welcome to our community, @Dogecoin ! I know, EFS sounds real, doesn’t it, but no, that just seemed to appear on my screen in a silly moment.
But that’s exactly the way it felt: hot pressure inside the foot. Mine was in the mid-foot, and I can imagine having that same sensation in the toes would be really uncomfortable (especially when it comes to putting shoes on).
Your profile mentions sulfasalazine. How long have you been on that? Some people do get relief on it, but others don’t. If you’ve been on that med for a few months and you still have ETS (you know …) please tell your rheumatologist. It’s probably time to try something else.
One of the things we say around here is “Fear the PsA, not the drugs.” What you are up against is a disease that can be sneaky and insidious. The people who usually do best are the ones who get early and agressive treatment. You don’t want to be the person who thinks they have mild disease, who suddenly finds they need a joint replaced because the damage happened so fast.
We’re glad you found us, Dogecoin, and we hope you will be too.
