Hi,

I've been diagnosed with TOs for the past 5 months and am showing no sign of improvement. The pain started in my left arm/ shoulder/ neck but for the past several monthes I ahve also been having lower body pain, which seems to mystify my doctors.

I have 2 types of lower body pain. I have the electric- shock like nerve pain as I get in my upper body. this seems to occur at random with sharp pain in my upper & lower legs, inner thighs and knees. I also have a dull aching pain in my ankles, hips, knees and lower back.

Has anyone experienced symptoms like this?

Thanks
