Have you mentioned that you feel this is bone pain to your doctor, Ann? If so, what was the doctor's opinion about this? I think I remember you are seeing a Neurologist, but do you have a regular Internist?

P.S. I am impressed you have been sober now for so long. That is just great! I think we have had some other people post on this board, or the old Brain Talk, who had been alcoholics at one time or another in their lives. I cannot remember what was prescribed for pain relief. Usually, for people who are not alcoholics, I think most docs still start out with non-narcotic pain killers anyway and attempt to give their patients pain relief.

For bone pain, I doubt you would get any relief, but have you tried the trigger point injections for other areas that really bother you?
