Do any of you have severe body aches?
My aches and pains started with the TOS However, lately it has crept up on me 2 fold. Feels like when I was going through chemo on the bad days. I'm weeding myself off Lexapro for 2 weeks now Calling the docs on Monday to se if it has anything to do with it Or just the painful flares. |

I got aches like that, reallly really bad, mostly on the right side before surgery, and still do a little. Meds didn't help except narcotics in a general way. Heat always helped me the most. Specifically, I use thermacare heat pads that stick on and you can walk around with them. I also use old-fashioned plug-in heat pads for when I'm in bed. I cover every part of my body that is having aches with heat.
hope that helps. let me know. luv, annie |

Achey, That's me... It started about a year after my initial injury and has gradually gotten much worse. Especially within the last 6 months I would say it has gotten to the point where there are days that I ache so badly that I find it difficult to climb the stairs in my house.
I initially felt great after my first TOS surgery and then 8 month after that is when it started to get to me. Then after the re-do I have felt like death warmed over on days... Sometimes I contribute it to my fibro and then other days I wonder if it is the combination of my meds... It seems that my doctors prescribe me these meds but none of them talk to each other... I finally see my first, "YES" first pain management Doc this Tuesday... YEA  I am hoping that he will sort thru these meds and decide which I need and which I don't and if there is something different that I should take instead...Boy if I could just turn back the hands of time... I hope your having a wonderful mother’s day with your family... Many Gentle Hugs Dawn

Medically why do our body's ache so much?
Annie, Thanks for the call I will try to call you this week Have been feeling really poopy these last few weeks and don't like to talk when I'm down. I wish you a peaceful recovery, Annie Please take your recovery slowly. Us type A's just don't get what it means to take 2 steps back to get ahead 1 step. I'm so impressed with what Dr. Sanders surgically did for you. Thinking of you... |
