Guest guest Posted April 24, 2006 Report Share Posted April 24, 2006 I asked my pharmacist about Joe's medicine (Klonopin) this morning and he said since Joe was on such a low dose he didn't think it would cause the problems we are having. He recomended that Joe stay on the medicine to keep the RBD in check and we can talk to our neurologist about it on our next visit. Anita > Welcome to the board Anita!

Guest guest Posted September 11, 2006 Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 Hello, I have a question for the group. I have been in alot of pain, mostly my back since April of this year. I am unemployed, no insurance, therefore no doctor visit. I am trying to research what could my pain be due from. I have all the symtoms of Fibromyalgia, but it could be a number of other illnesses also. Does anybody in this group have Fibromyaligia or suffer from chronic muscle pain? I would like to know what your symtoms are so I can rule out the thought that I may have Fibromyaligia. Thanks! Amy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 11, 2006 Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 Hi Amy I hope you can find some kind of help with your back.I went 5 yrs with insurance and not 1 dr would touch me cause i was operated on in a military hospital so i know how you are feeling with not being able to get help for your back.If you need help trying to find a free clinic in your area please let me know and i wll help you searching for one.I wish our govt would get like britians free medical for everyone. I can understand the pain you are in i also have degentive disc disease scolios and joints and muscles are deterioting .I have heard from others that spurs on the spine are very painful.I am so sorry that you are in pain and cant get help.So i take it you are not taking anything to help the pain except probably overthe counter stuff right??I can also try and help you find out what to do give me few days amy and we will figure something out.I just need to know the closest big city you are near OshunWater@... wrote: Hey Darcy, I am in Ohio. I will hopefully be working before too long and will have insurance but for now, I need to get some kind of treatment before I crack. Thank you for your empathy. And yes, you are correct, the pain could stem from somewhere other than my back. I was diagnosed with Degenerative Disc Disease and also have bone spurs on my spine, but I really don't think that is what is causing the pain. The disc disease is just starting and the bone spurs on located along my spine in the upper region of my back. My pain is mostly lower back, neck, and arms. It's almost like having really weak muscles. I'll figure something out. Thank you for your help. Have a good day, Amy We need to see each other's suffering as our own.
