Hi. I am new to this forum, am looking forward to information on a number of issues. For now:

My good friend has Parkinson's and has been going through a difficult time. He is asking for help re: back pain. He says, "I also have pain issues which I'm reaching out to friends since the doctors haven't come up with an answer. I have a weird burning back pain and when I lay down in bed it stops me from sleeping especially after 3 am. I've tried different creams, and over the counter pain meds, cold wash cloths, icey hot. If any of you have experience with this or have any ideas let me know. Thanks."

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thank you,

Julie
