Pain

I woke up at 4 am again but in terrible pain. I had never hurt this bad before. My knees and ankles hurt so bad that I had sharp pains going all through my legs and when I would stand it felt like they could give any minute. I think that it is a mixture of RA, Fibro, and MS. Any advice for the pain? My pain meds don't help. It did end up coming a big storm later in the afternoon.

I have a pain pump and it helps a lot with ms pain along with my back. I have pain in both legs and arms along with two herniated disks, bulged disk, and seven bone spurs. Ken 🐾🐾

Of course, I recommend talking with your doctor about pain control, but I've read here that many have had relief from pain by using arnica gel or CBD oils. I hope you get some relief soon.

I contacted my doctor about the pain. She sent me some Prednisone in even thought I am already taking it. I don't understand why but I will keep taking them until I go to see her next week. We are both thinking it is the rain that is causing it. I got a little bit of sleep but was up again at 3 am. I am taking Gabapentin 600 mg 3 times a day and hydro 10 mg. but they don't want to help with this pain. My husband said that he can tell I am going through a relapse so that might be making it worse.

I hope that it's not a relapse!! But if it is, I hope the steroids help you soon! Watch out for the munchies! Just try and take it easy!! And let your body heals. πŸ€—πŸ’•πŸŒ 

If it gets too bad go to the ER!
