I have been experiencing what I thought was rls for about 2 years. I have taken a lot of meds that either cause me to feel like my skin is on fire or make me very ill. I have tried muscle relaxers, valium, xanax and they make it much worse. My symptoms have progressed from restlessness in my calves to shooting stabbing pain from my feet to my hips and pain and the restless feeling in both arms. I experience cramps all day long and just a general soreness while walking. I went for a sleep study last night and had to leave because I was in excruciating pain and had to come home and sit a a scalding hot bath for about an hour to get a slight amount of relief. I am getting maybe 3 hours of sleep a night which is leaving me completley exhausted as well. Although my boss understands what I am going through she pulled me into her office last week and told me that if I don't get this taken care of I may lose my job because of my lack of concentration and silly mistakes.

Alright last week I got the bunion on my right foot removed and this morning I got my stitches out and I was told I could take showers normally and my foot would be ok getting wet. I got the stitches out around 9:30 this morning and then I took a shower around 4:00. When I got in the shower my stomach immediatly started hurting. And when I put my foot down the pain was definitely intensified. After a few minutes I couldn't take it anymore, I just washed my hair and immediatly got out. I thought I was going to throw up. Then I was sitting in bed and slept for four hours.

Does anyone know why this all may have I happened? =/
Thanks in advance.

I woke up today and I realized that the skin between my thumb and pointer was in pain. Not only that, but (I work at McDonalds) when I was rolling papers up for a packet, I couldn't do it as flexible as I once can.

When I talked to my mom about it, she mentioned Carpal Tunnel. What is going on?

The active ingredients are the same, but Biofreeze contains Ilex, an extract from the Holly scrub. Biofreeze costs twice as much. Is it worth it?

my lower back right above my butt. I have attempted many times to streach it out but it just made it worse. What are some suggestions to make this pain go away? Massages and Doctor visits are not available to me.

To help lessen the strain on the back and the feet. Working in a concrete floor warehouse and standing or walking all day.

these left over medicines are ones that my doctor had me buy and are not just over the counter ones either and I hate to just throw them away if someplace out there can use them. I would like to donate them to someone who can use them and I don't want to just throw them away if there are people out there that can use them and maybe can't afford them

I've been having trouble with my shoulder for years. I have taken prescription anti-inflammatory medicines, they tend to sort of help, but really mess with my stomach. I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for an over-the-counter version. I've tried Tylenol Arthristis and it sucked. I use typical Advil now, but it's starting not to work anymore.

I know that I have to gradually ween myself off of fentanyl. I've been on it for 6 years due to fibromyalgia...currently I have no medical insurance and it cost a few hundred dollars a month for my patches...is there any other type of pain killer that is inexpensive...morphine doesn't work at all...don't even mention percocet or vicodin they do nothing...the withdraw is HORRIBLE from fentanyl..I've tried to commit suicide several times because I couldn't take the withdraw symptoms. I was hospitalized each time. I've tried to take xanax to help with the anxiety ..it didn't help at all. Please only serious answers

Now i am not aloud to wear tennis shoes for my job so have to wear black oxford type shoes. The pain is back. With the same insert it dosen't help. What can I do? If the pain is like this I won't be able to work.

If the container is yours, you dont need it, and it was never opened. Can you sell that or give it to someone you know who has a perscription for it, but cant afford it?
