I'm so glad you found us. You certainly have a dilemma here, but I'm wondering whether you've involved a medical team yet. If so, has any testing been done? Are you being treated for anything now? If so, are you taking prescribed or OTC medication?

Darlene's given you a couple of great links. I'd like to add a couple. There are diseases which involve 24/7 pain, such as MS. Understand, please, I'm not suggesting you have MS, only that these folks deal with pain 24/7.:

Stumble Inn: http://NeuroTalk.psychcentral.com/forum102.html

Certain drugs, such as statins, can set up reactions too. I'm one of the people who suffer the side effects of cholesterol fighters. I feel like all my muscles are bruised, all my joints arthritic. This contributes to my depression. You might find some support here: http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum37.html

I hope you come back & that we have a chance to get to know one another.
