I did post this on another blog, but just realised that the blog was an old one. So hope this is ok.
Im new to all of this but am looking for some help if possible. Like the above Ive been having pain in my torso but mostly in my legs. They jump all the time especially at night which keeps me awake I too sleep in a ball or on my belly with my feet hanging off the bed but they still jump and ache. I’m taking gabapentin,800mg morning noon and bed time. amitriptyline 20mg @ bedtime and tramadol 100mgs when needed. My legs are the worst they have been like this for poss 3 years it’s continues when it eases off its great and I think it’s gone for good then when it starts again, I feel about 80 not 45.
I have been to the doctor so many time. I sure they think I’m a hypochondriac. All they do is give me more tablets to take.
i did think it was related to my bones at first the same as my Gp I had so many X-rays on all joints as they did think I had rymotoid arthritis as my fingers have nobles on them but this was ruled out after that my Gp lost interest so now I’m stuck with pain, legs back hips at time all my muscles ache and are sore I’m so depressed about it. At times I just feel like ending it all I get so moody.ive read all of your web site and I have most of what the symptoms are or am I being daft please help.
i will try those. I’ve had them before years ago.I carnt remember if they worked I’ve been given so many pills I’ve lost track of them. I was having chest pains about a month ago really bad. It felt like I was having a heart attack…one of the girls at work wanted to call an ambulance. It stopped after a while.but every so often it happens again,so the GP put me on omeprazole.
Its as if I have so many things wrong.but I take different pills for different things and still don’t know what’s wrong.
My daughter lives quite a way away. She has been bad for a while and her GP is sending her for tests as they think she has MS. She has a different surgery. I live in Devon she lives in Cornwall. My husband thinks I’m mad and my mother keeps pushing me to go back to the GP.and me well I’m so lost with it all,I just don’t know what to do.
