Sore Feet are a Pain in the Neck. Well, Sometimes..
So are Arch Supports the panacea for aches and pains? Maybe not for all that ales you, but they can be a good start. You should always start at the bottom and work your way up.
Arch Supports are not just for arch pain. If you have toe, heel, ankle, shin, knee, or back pain arch supports may be able to relieve your pain by correcting alignment. Often when the arch of your foot is not supported correctly the rest of your foot alignment is disturbed, affecting the alignment in the rest of your body.
Here is a list of Corresponding Conditions and Symptoms that arch supports can aid:
Conditions/Symptoms
Flat Feet / underdeveloped arches
Plantar fasciitis / heel pain (leading to heel spurs) and fatigued arches
Heel Spurs / sharp or burning pain in the heel due to inflammation
Charcot foot / weak and collapsing arches
Metatarsalgia / cramping or burning in the ball of foot area
Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome / shooting pain or numbness on the inside of the ankle and foot
Sever’s disease / affects children: pain felt at the back and side of the heel bone
Corns / a hard or thick spot of skin on the foot
Chondromalacia or Runner’s Knee / aching pain around the kneecap
Calluses / thickening of the skin on the foot
Bunions / enlargement of the joint at the base of the big toe
Shin splints / pain or tenderness inside and below the knee
Toe problems, such as hammertoe or Overlapping/ Underlapping toes - toes are incorrectly aligned
For others conditions that insoles aid by cushioning, see our symptoms and pain list.
*Please note that these are only common causes. Arch supports can only provide pain relief for arch related problems. We do not claim that arch supports cure any condition. The foot has very complex anatomy so there can be many different reasons to explain what is causing your feet to hurt, and some problems can cause more to arise. For this reason, you should always consult a doctor for a correct diagnosis or recommendation for insoles, especially if your pain is severe, worsens, or persists, even with the aid of insoles.

no that's not it. I had the samething in every area your speaking about and they found out it was caused by Insipidus Diabetes. It's when your low on hormones in your body that this will happen. I started taking medication for it and it's slowly getting better. This is something I will have to take the rest of my life. You might want to see a encrodine doctor for diabetes as they did blood levels on me to see what was wrong. don't wait as it on;y gets worse.

There is no such thing as fibromyalgia. It is a catch all disease for doctors when they have no idea what to diagnose someone with. I call it fibromyassa.
You could have any number of things. You do need a doctor. It could be something extremely serious or something minor. But with those symptoms, I would not sit and wait for something else to happen. Any time your body is affected with all over tingling, it is not good. I would call my doctor Mon. a.m.
Even with this being a holiday week end, if it gets worse I would call my doctor and then go to the E.R. Don't take the chance of a stoke or heart attack.

Fibromyalgia usually starts in the neck and shoulders, exactly where you're having the pain . This could be your problem. Other people here have given answers that are also valid.
I have written an article on Fibromyalgia and I'm enclosing the link . After you have read it you will have a better understanding of Fibromyalgia and from there you can make a decision about talking this over with your doctor.
If you have any further questions please let me know,

It could be fibromyalgia, but you should see your doctor to be sure- it will be really good if you are able to catch it earlier, it can help a lot.
