Puts me in a pretty bad mood too...I'm currently taking lots of Vicoden and advil, also seeing a Pain management specialist who put my on Nuerontin (sp?) to get me off the vicoden...So far the stupid Nuerontin isn't working, I'm supposed to take 2 pills 3x a day, I started with one at night, and add another at night, then add one in the afternon and so on. After I got up to 2 pills 2x a day, I tried to go with out the Vicoden, and ended up crying with so much pain...so I called and told him it wasn't working, but he insisted I go up to the recommended dose...I did, and still not helping! Have you seen anyone about the pain? Supposedly our disease is painless, but the more pole I ask, the more seem to have the same symptoms...I think someone needs to re-write those stupid information pages...I read one today that insisted most people with MG were able to live a normal life and continue to enjoy the hobbies they always have. Ha! I'm scared to go to the grocery store by myself!

Sounds like you have ran into the same thing I have. I want to know what causes the pain and then treat it. Your description is right on target. I feel it in my larger muscle groups first and then head to toe. It is 24/7. I have never been one to require much meds. Taking two Tylenol was a big thing for me. Now I am taking a Loritab to sleep get some relief so I can sleep at night. I feel it is related to or originated from one of the meds.
