Hi Joanmarie!
Hey sweetheart! I'm so sorry to hear about your pain! We could be TWINS! I'm having the exact same problem - to the point that I now have to wear a pain patch in addition to some pain meds....the drs have no idea what is causing me to hurt this much, but have ruled out anything major!
I love the fact that you DO always stay positive. It would be so hard to do so while you hurt so much! That takes true GRACE!
I bet it is a B-12 deficiency! You should be up and feeling GREAT soon!
Love,
Erin

I went to the Dr about my severe leg/foot pain along with tingling/numbness down my left side.
He told me I was low in B-12 and gave me a shot, need to do that every other week for 3 months and than once a month. He also did xrays of my hip {to make sure I don't have a pinched nerve} and is scheduling an MRI of my brain to compare to last one taken in March.
He told me not to panic but he wants to rule out MS, that my heaviness and weakness and double vision is certanly the MG but the other symptoms are not. So we need to rule out the MS and hope it is just B-12 deficiency.
I have to say I actually feel calm right now because I am hopeful it is just the B-12. Always stay positive!
