My hips. My hips. Always, my hips.
And my lower back. And my neck. But mostly, my freaking hips.

Your own body, what hurts today?

I've had toothache all over Christmas and the New Year. Finally went to see the dentist and he gave me a prescription for Metronydazole. I started taking it on Friday and it's definitely helping to reduce the pain in my lower right jaw. However, I think I may be going down with the virus the rest of my family have been suffering from as I feel washed out and very tired at the moment, with a constant headache, sore throat, and weakness throughout my body.
I tore or strained my rotator cuff last year and until I got to the doctor I had someone wrap a wide piece of Ace bandage around my arm and body at midriff height, just to keep that arm snug against my side to remind me not to move it. Then I went to the doctor and he put me on a ten day course of prednisone which made me feel great and allowed it to heal. Hope you can get help today!

Are you using any prescription meds? Any for pain? It sounds like muscle and joint pain...is it arthritis?
I am prescribed 1800 mg Gabapentin , 600mg every 8 hrs. Also 100mg Tramadol, 25mg every 6 hours. I take about 25mg of a Marijuana Gummie with the Tramadol.
I know you don't like to take drugs but a little bit, for a short time, to give you some relief. Your other health tools are helping?

The question for me, should be, what part of my body does not hurt today. This cold weather is playing havoc with my arthritis.

Did the local firefighters by chance do an EKG and did you mention
about the pain in your arm. Good they were able to assist you up
and off the floor. Sending you a huge hug.

Everything. Fibromyalgia ripping and roaring today. It feels like a full-body migraine. I have a Norco RX but on days like today, they might as well be M&Ms. I save them for moderate pain days to help me have a productive day. The only thing that works on a day this bad is an alcohol buzz and that's only relief for an hour or so and counterproductive in the long run so I don't do that either.

My knee It just started the other day. It feels sore at the side of the knee. I am using a heat pad and using a foot stool to elevate it which seems to be helping. We had a fluttering of snow this afternoon and, according to the weather reports, tomorrow is going to be fine but Thursday and Friday could be snow so, sore knee or not, I am going out tomorrow!
