Pain...

[Dalollies]

I am in the worst pain!!! From my waist up I feel like someone beat the crap out of me. I am also starting a migraine. Anyone with the same pain?

Yes I've suffered from severe migraines. Body aching like hell. Just suffered a week of severe flare-ups. Doing good now. Hot bubble baths exercise and staying strong is how I survive. I have a 6 yr old son that needs me more than lupus and refuse to give up without a fight!!! Stay strong

Thank you for the advise.. I have never had this muscle pain like this. It's hard to know what is related and what's not.

Not sure if your pain is related to lupus. Please get medical expert.

Sorry you are having a bad time I get a lot of leg back and shoulder pain and my go put me on tramadol 10 yrs ago this is the only pain relief I have taken that has worked with no side effects ,only if I take it after 2pm I will not sleep at night and I find it hard to get more than 5 hrs anyway . It would be worth asking to try it also when mussel pain is very bad I take amitriptalne I know these drugs are strong but needs must hope you get sorted , I can take up to 6 tramadol a day but limit my self to no more than 2 a day when working or driving as if you have more than I ink 150 ml in your blood you can get you arrested for driving under the influence of drugs but as I say it is the only pain relief that has worked for me but it is a marmite pill it likes you or it dose not

I also take amatriptyline for migraine. I don't work...I usually don't take anything anyway but this is getting pretty Unbearable. I was thinking a glass of wine might help.

No wine if it's a migraine .Will make it sooo much worse.I suffer from really bad migraines and I have a specific med it's called zolmitriptan.My son has migraines too and he has sumatriptan.both work really well.normal painkillers will not help migraine but could help with joint pain.u r migraine could b linked to other pain if you r tense and unable to sleep properly this can trigger migraine.If u can manage a hot bath for joint pain then lye down in cool quiet room put cold compress over u r forehead / eyes and sip plenty of liquids try n get some sleep.make sure and try n eat something decent.high sugar content can make migraine worse. Sorry u r feeling so crap I can sypathize.My pain is all my right side and I get migraines wen I'm not getting what I need for my body.

Hi, yes I too know this pain all too well. My body -muscles and joints ache and I feel as if ants are crawling and biting under my skin...all over. I get migraines as well.

I don't have an easy solution. I take a dose of prescribed analgesia at lunchtime, by evening I'm better equipped to cope, knowing I can chill......

I'm sorry for you and can only suggest that you let your doctor know how severe the pain is, in order to be treated accordingly. I adhere to all the lifestyle management techniques but it is not sufficient. Do please get medical advice, we shouldn't have to 'suffer in silence'.

sending gentle hugs
