I get that when I've done too much and lupus rebels. I usually take a short course of steroids (4 days of 10mg) to stop it, it doesn't happen very often.

didn't fully explain im also going to physio for frozen shoulder all which started in oct but im just not sure bout anything now as muscle pain seemed to be getting better now back with a avengance.im watching my grandson and just scared the shit out of him as i lightly banged my arm and was screaming like someone had stabbed me and i can take pain x

i havn't been diagnosed bt i ave had this before when all this first started in october,thought i was starting to get better.so i can't take steroids anything else that might help please purpletop.x

I don't know what to suggest, if it was muscular contraction to protect your neck (the reason for the frozen shoulder I suspect) then I understand but the symptoms you describe are more like arthralgia or myalgia, rather. Have you taken any antiinflammatories to check if they help?

Totally with you letslaugh ,ice sufferd terrible muscle issues for years and very much the last 8months ,my muscles feels like there hanging on to the bones for dear life ,i get twitches galore ,random stabbing pains ,my back muscles burn constantly even sitting against them causes them to burn and twitch ,nobody answers my concerns they just chuck another pill to try .Your not alone, but for me i find heat from hot water bottles ,keeping warm and taking combination ibrofen and paracetamol or co-codamol,amyltriptaline if you can tolerate it?
