I was reading some of the posts and decided to join. I do not have a whole lot of understanding with this dreadful disease, all I know is that I hurt constantly. I take magnesium 250 mg once or twice a day which helps tremendously with pain I do not want to take pain meds. I notice that when there is a change in the weather I have more pain, for about 4 days I had issues with allergies I had a hard ache in both legs then this evening my feet felt extremely cold and then the onset of some horrible pain, after reading some of the post, I realized that my diagnosis was most likely correct, I have kept telling myself that it was not and wake up most mornings hoping and praying that it was all a bad dream and that I would be back to my normal self before any of this happened. Would appreciate any help in understanding this dreadful condition.
