I have P/N up to my ankles with numbness and burning. This I can control somewhat with lyrica 150g and 150-200 tramadol.

However its the random joint pain which is the biggest problem. The burning doesnt stop me walking but the joint pain does.

The pain can hit anytime in the knees or ankle but never in both feet together . Currently its in my right ankle which feels tender to touch and painful to stand

I used to get a lot of gout but have drastically modified the diet which is all fruit and vege with some beef or fish in the evenings so dont think its gout but could be wrong.

What has helped in the past is predisnone.

This last 7 days I have had severe lower back pain ,rapid onset but cleared in 4 days . Followed by knee pain with some light swelling but may have done that in the gym, its gone now. Currently ankle pain no swelling.

What should I be doing to stop or at least control the pain in theses attacks?
celebrex?
