aches

I don't know if it's just my body or if it's an MS thing but lately my hips and legs have been aching like crazy! I had been taking warm baths to relax my muscles, but that only helps for so long...My hips have hurt before because of having bone taking out of both sides in high school, so i don't know if it's from that either. But this week i've been having really bad cramps too. It's to the point where it hurts down to my bones...it's never been that bad before! it's all very frustrating! any tips?

I get hip and leg pain when I am doing too much. Usually an hour or two on the couch with my legs elevated on pillows helps. Ibuprofen, too.

When I do too much I really suffer. I get awful pain in my legs... to the point where I want to cry! I find that PT and acupunture help me. I just don't always have the time to get those appointments but when I'm really suffering I drop everthing and go. Good luck! Maria

    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...
