Sorry to hear that you are in pain. But what sort of pain? Do you have any pain meds that might help? Have you had it before and if so what did you do then to help it?

Just noticed that it is now 8 hours after your post so I imagine that things have sorted out one way or another. sorry I couldn't help but I was not on line at that time - it was supper time here (Australia).

Try switching between ice and heat alternating every 15 minutes ending on heat. ice, heat, ice, heat, ice.

Maybe it is time to have some of your meds switched. You are the right type of meds, might be you are used to them and need a different type for a few months to get your system to respond to them.

a friend of mine has fibro and I have MS...the pain can be awful to deal with.I would speak with ur doc about what u can do about the pain. There is medication out there that can help. Whether it be non narcotic or narcotic pain meds. I also find with my MS that heat aggravates it. So I would experiment around with ice and cool compresses, if that makes it worse go back to heat.
Sorry wish I could be more help.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
