I appreciate that she really 'feels' the pain, it seems to be like neuropathy but it hasn't responded to meds. She also insists that her feet are swelling, even though both a Dr and an RN observed her on 2 different occasions and confirmed that there was no swelling.
I try to reassure her that while it may feel like they are swelling, that it's just a feeling and they are not really swollen.
I belive that she believes that there is something wrong, although I do think she exaggerates for me and my bro, as she will use a crying voice with us, but if she speaks to my SIL or my s/o, she will speak in a normal tone of voice.
Taking her anywhere is difficult, as she refuses to go. I actually searched extensively and found a Dr that came to the house, checked her, did bloodwork and told her she was in better shape than he was.
She doesn't believe him or the fact that all the bloodwork came back perfect.
