John, i hope the paracetamol have had some success in abating the pain for you. Stress doesn't help as i well know. Its no fun being woken up in the night with pain. Go back to bed and rest and see if that helps. Sylvi.xx
Sorry to hear you're feeling so bad. Stress is a big no no for me and my arthritis too as it always causes me more pain. I hope your doctor can give you something a bit better than paracetamol but a good rest will probably be the best medicine. Take care
