Hi Joanne,

Just wanted to welcome you to the group...and to say I'm sorry for your

pain. I wish I could give you some good info but I know nothing about your

condition. If there is any place you will get info about your pain it would

be from this great group of people. I think we have just about every kind

of pain there is between all of us, so hopefully someone will step up and

give you some good advise. At least you are in a group where people really

understand chronic pain and are willing to listen and help when their pain

permits.

Take care,

Ann

Hi Joanne,

I also have Myofascial Pain Syndrome and I wanted to welcome you to the

group. This is a wonderful place to share your thoughts, frustrations, and

joys,

as well as a sharing of great information.

I have used Myofascial release therapy myslef and found it to be very

helpful. I do alot of stretching exercises too. Your post reminded me of some

other

avenues that I wanted to explore myself. I look forward to getting to know

you.

Hi Joanne,

My daughter has all the same injuries you have from repetitive motion. You are

the first person that I have heard of that has thorasic outlet syndome.

was operated on for that last Sept. and a rib was removed. She had no pulse to

speak of in her right arm. Seems to be doing better now. She also has FMS.

She is on all kind of med. even fentanol pops. Poor girl is miserable. If I

can be of any help, let me know. Donna
