Oh sweet Kay, you are in pain. I can tell by your posts. Poor thing.

Snoopy - Sorry it didn't work for you. I agree about the Cymbalta. I was on it for 3 days and was pain free for 3 days. However, the Cymbalta messed with my head. I am normally a passive compassionate person and I was having AGGRESSIVE thoughts. Scared the cr*p out of me. No more of that stuff for me. I wish the could find what it is in that AD that works on the pain receptors in our brains and then isolate it so we can just have that portion.

It sounds really strange but for me taking Epsom salt baths helps so much with the pain. Then I have DDs or DBF gently massage my muscles (mostly my back - touching my legs can sometimes cause the spasms I'm trying get rid of). Then we ice them down. It helps quite a bit. It is a nightly ritual when the pain is real bad.
