I used to get leg cramp early in morning in bed but swearby my memory foam mattress on top of my rise and fall bed. If I do get any discomfort I use pain killers and rub on Arnica gel. I take loads of homeopathec drugs as well and suppose I am lucky as feel well in myself.<br /><br />How do you get a http with number that bloggers can use?

The pain in my shoulder and neck are byproduct of paralysis in my scapula and left shoulder joint-so that the joint subluxes (partially dislocates) and the weight of my arm literally pulls on my neck. I also have arm pain that I call, 'debutante pain,' since it stretches from my fingertips to my biceps--like long gloves. It is a combination of squeezing, burning, and aching.<br />Chronic Nerve Pain Sucks! So do neurologists who belittle what we are experiencing. (my neuro suggests ibuprofen for my pain). I do have a great pain doctor who believes my experience and works to alleviate as much as he can.<br />Hang in there!Janinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12717871355383932570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38895750.post-68410985992240357472009-06-09T08:41:34.779-07:002009-06-09T08:41:34.779-07:00Even when you don't try funny, you are still f...Even when you don't try funny, you are still funny.

I too have daily chronic pain. I am currently doing PT which only seems to exacerbate things but I am assured I need to hang in there and continue doing the exercises. I am not completely convinced however. <br />I agree with your thoughts about allowing anyone near your spine. I feel the same way. I hope they can lessen your pain without surgery. <br />Wishing you the best.Kellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09166638497909239665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38895750.post-40749694470970621932009-06-08T11:51:18.717-07:002009-06-08T11:51:18.717-07:00Sorry to hear this...it must be awful for you........Sorry to hear this...it must be awful for you.....harkoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12055820464289576902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38895750.post-60052866428308374732009-06-08T05:32:12.813-07:002009-06-08T05:32:12.813-07:00"You can't force funny." ---- ain..."You can't force funny." ---- ain't that the truth. <br /><br />"You also can't force a thought - provoking, coherent, deep comment."Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17421022098477662697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38895750.post-45927561502891923922009-06-08T05:00:26.664-07:002009-06-08T05:00:26.664-07:00I was reading something last week where a neurolog...I was reading something last week where a neurologist said that there is NO PAIN involved in MS.<br /><br />I generally have little to no pain from the fairly mild symptoms I have and have recently been quite startled to have a 4-5 level of pain for several days from a flare up I've been having.<br /><br />So I googled it. THOUSANDS of hits on MS with pain. Not only is my constant foot pain a VERY typical MS thing but the bruisey leg thing I just had is not atypical either.<br /><br />For just a minute I was psyched that if I was having pain and a neuro said no pain with MS then do I still have MS? Man I HATE doctors!<br /><br />I'm VERY sorry that you are having pain with your MS. Does it make you feel better to know that MS never causes pain unless you count the thousands of people reporting it on the interweb who don't count of course because they just have MS they aren't neurologists.<br /><br />Try to hang in there and I hope that it does pass as so many symptoms do!barriehttp://funwithdogs.tumblr.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38895750.post-71840572701899343892009-06-08T04:23:00.276-07:002009-06-08T04:23:00.276-07:00So sorry to hear the status of your painful situat...So sorry to hear the status of your painful situation. It truly sucks. My pain doesn't even compare. Sorry. I know it helps to think that others have it worse than you do, but, at least on the pain front, mine isn't as bad as yours seems to be. Yours is definitely worse than mine - which makes mine not seem so bad. Funny how that works. Huh. Gee, thanks! (j/k)Websterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13518858062969978457noreply@blogger.com
