I’ve had many foot surgeries and still have problems. When my feet hurt it makes walking difficult.

Yes. It randomly comes out of the blue! I will be walking the dog then all of a sudden I feel dizzy and scared. I feel like I might fall and lose the dog so I turn around and go back home.
I think it is because of all the darn medication they make us take!
Sweating? That is an every single day occurrence. Especially first thing in the morning!
I feel so hot & sweaty most of the day. I even have one of those non-window air conditioners at work. I run it every single day...even in the winter!!!

Yes, I have balance issues and problems with my ankles. I did go to physical therapy to strengthen my thighs. This helped in two ways. 1- it took awhile but it did help strengthen and balance. And 2- it gave me something to look forward to and get out of bed. The only problem is, keeping it up at home. Without an appointment it is hard to take time and go thru the exercises. Good luck and give your all

I am having serious problems with my balance. I tend to roll my ankles, and then I fall. I am in physical therapy at this point, but I do not feel it is going to help. Does anyone else have this problem, I do wear supports on both ankles.

I too get dizzy and lightheaded at times. It's such a weird feeling, then it goes away. As for sweating... ugh...yes! Not sure if it was from RA or maybe it's the start of premenopause lol🀣🀣🀣🀣🀣 Then again...I could just be crazy! πŸ˜‰πŸ€£πŸ˜›πŸ˜œπŸ€ͺπŸ™ƒπŸ€―πŸ˜±πŸ˜±πŸ˜›πŸ˜œ

Yes I also have all 3. Balance almost daily and getting worse. Dizziness is occasionally. I also have Fibromyalgia. My sweating is horrible and embarrassing. My hair gets wet and the sweat drips down my face. I hate it!
