I have pain throughout my body that comes and goes. I have weird leg pain. I have a lot of headaches. I am never pain free. But along with all of the fibro stuff, I need two knee replacements, shoulder surgery and arthritus. I need a pain med that will help everything. I take Advil the most. Is there anything that will address all of my problems?

I have the same things as far as fibromyalgia and arthritis. Instead of Advil try Aleve. Also having Fibromyalgia you need to even out the amount of light that you are exposed to. Stay active and see a Chiropractor. As a back up plan get a muscle relaxer and an anti-inflammatory medicine like Skelaxin (muscular) and something different for the inflammation. You will be surprised at the difference. It may take a month to 6 weeks to see something different. Eat as healthy as you can.

I'll second what Supermama said, and I'll add my two cents as well. I take 800 mg. of Aleve and a 1000-mg. flaxseed oil capsule every night at bedtime, and I take Arnica tablets (a homeopathic herb) as needed for flareups. It works really well for me. I could probably find more relief if I got more sleep, but sleep hasn't been interfering much with my schedule for a while. :-)

A natural to remedy the pain you are going thru is to take glyco
nutrients. I have testimonials on my page that you will find interesting.
