I think I am writing this just to vent. I feel like swallowing a bottle of something fatal because I can't stand this horrible pain. It is getting worse ecery day. Burning wretched leg and foot pain. The muscles in my arms are aching so bad I can hardly think. The joints in hands an wrists are screaming at me, WTF nothing helps. Can never sleep. hurts too much to lay down. Sorry, just needed to tell someone and where can I find anyone at 5 am

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...
I am gonna go read what I can of what you are taking and stuff since i am new. I am sure not asking you to relate anything while you are so down and out.
Hope it doesn't offend anything for you, but I've already put you up in prayer. Just a simple "take care of her God" prayer.
Know you are never alone.
Hugs.
My shoulders arms and neck hurt so bad my arms have shook for 2 days. This weather is wrecking havoc on my body. I have to go to work today, just gotta make it thru today, i tell myself that every day.
Im sorry you were up and no one was here.
Try to get some rest today. Im sorry you are hurting so badly.
Now I don't feel so alone. I am aching, and hurting, too. My wrist hurts so bad, lortabs don't ouch it, and I woke up with the most horrible pain in my right hip! I got out of bed and just about went to my knees from pain! I never had THIS before!! WTF?? I had plans with my Mom and Sis today, blown to hell because I CAN BARELY WALK FROM THE LIVING ROOM TO THE BATHROOM, WITHOUT FALLING! My pain meds are not working, my Dr. won't up them or change them, I am at a loss. However, I don't feel like taking the whole bottle. I just want the pain to ease up. I'm sitting here wrapped in a heating pad around my hip. THIS SUCKS!
Thats my rant...Sorry. Have to get it out. Its very cold here today, maybe thats part of it, but some of these pains, I've never experienced before. Could that mean FM is getting worse?? I wish I knew.
I will say a prayer for all of us to feel better and have some peace today...
Hugs,
Laurie
It seems like you are needing a new pain medication. I'm taking Voltoren and it's been helping to take the edge of the pain. Keeping trying any and all treatments and medications. Something will eventually work to at least relieve some of the deep pain.
I don't think most people understand until you tell them what it feels like. My son told me he would kill himself if he had to feel like I did.
Please don't kill yourself. Take a pain pill when it gets this bad and take a hot shower and anything but please don't OD. I will pray for you to have some relief, Hugs, Keleee :)
I've had all that pain and mine turned out to be chronic myofascial pain syndrome that I've been very successful in control with trigger point massage. It's a LOT of work, but overall, my pain is neglible so long as I keep the trigger points deactivated.
I had one doctor tell me it was nerve damage that was causing the intense burning in my feet and Achilles tendons. The pain in my shoulders, neck and back would be so bad I literally couldn't turn my head. This would go on for a week straight.
Now that I know it's just trigger points, I use a two-headed percussion massager to keep them broken up and the pain at bay.
