My symtoms seem like what everyone describes, and then they dont. My pain never gets better. If I lie in bed all day and never hang my legs down, then I will not be in pain (much). If I get up and just sit with my legs down, the pins and needle pain ( no numbness at all) and burning and stabbing start. If i try to walk, then it is all the above plus knifing and torture, with tight shins and a tight band around my ankles, like my legs are in a vice. then it moves up to my thighs and waist up to a level 10 pain. I had multiple foot surgeries, and prolotherapy injections inflamed my nerves to inlcude my legs and spine.
I didnt have this kind of pain in my legs until the injections 15 months ago.
So my nerves were so irritated they are permanently damaged? so they cant heal? no one knows, or they dont want to tell me. the neuro said this was for life. meds are making me sick. I want to try to understand what is going on so I can get some relief.
what do any of you think?
