My joints dislocate because I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (http://www.ednf.org/). I am a Hyper-mobile Type & recently I've been having excruciating pain in my right hip. I have bursitis in both hips, & I suffer pain in my SI joint as well. Today the pain was simply unbearable; I got very little sleep last night & was crying when the pain woke me @ noon. I'm on Fentanyl 100 micrograms. My pain management doctor prescribes me Oxycontin 10 mg's when I need something extra for these times, so I took one. Usually this works but not today. 6 hours passed, I took a 2nd one. That helped but I fell asleep & when I woke up, was in pain again. I've tried a hot bath, heating pads (wrapped around the hip, & on my SI joint), ice, & massaging it with lotion. Nothing is helping much. It feels like someone is trying to saw off my leg still. Is there something I'm missing that I can do to help it? My next appointment w/my pain doctor is this Friday; I'm just desperate for a fix until then.

I was able to eat pretty much anything I wanted, then about 2 years ago I started getting heartburn every time I drank orange juice or ate anything with tomatoes in it. Even if I avoided the foods that flared it up, I still ended up nauseous. Now, pretty much every time I eat I get a sick, dull pain in my upper abdomen just below and slightly to the left of my breastbone, in between my ribs. If I bend over I nearly vomit, and have actually vomited before because of it. It's not that I'm eating too much, I eat regular portoin sizes and rarely eat seconds. I ate lasagna tonight and felt like I was going to faint, it hurt so bad. It was dull pain, but it felt kind of like someone was putting out a cigar in my stomach. I don't have any blood in my vomit or anywhere else, and I still have somewhat of an appetite, although I'm getting to the point that I don't want to eat at all just to avoid the nausea. I don't want to have an ulcer, but I'm afraid that's what it is. What do you think?

Triple bypass Surgery was 2 years ago and the doctors (family and heart) don't seem to take it seriously that my breastbone is separating. When turning torso and/or wearing restrictive clothing (bra) feels like something inside is pinching and occasionally I can feel the bones move. Can get finger inside the 1/2 inch separation between bones. Top 2 inches of bone seems to be closely attached. There is a knot at top of bone that doctor has said is probably calcification over the end of one wire. Bottom few inches is where the separation is taking place. Would like to know if others have had this problem, if it is a normal occurance, and/or what others with problem have done about it. I'm too young to live with this pain for the rest of my life and it is hard to distinquish between chest pain and heart pain.

Yesturday I had to lift 70 lbs. Which is too much for me. I can't really lift with my knees, as best as I can with my back, so that's why I have a terribly sore back right now. It hurts to move it any which way and do anything with it. Anything I can do to make my back feel better?
