Guest guest Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 a, I'm am so sorry that you are going through this. I don't recall your email, but I am just a lurker most times. I will go the group and find your email. Don't go anywhere! Be right back!

Please let me know if any of your symptoms are similar to mine. PJ Never miss a thing. Make Yahoo your homepage. Looking for last minute shopping deals? Find them fast with Yahoo! Search.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Ok, found your email and again, I am so sorry that you are having to deal with so much! I know it is hard. Now, as for the pain in the leg, I too have this due to fibromyalgia. When you talked about your arm and hands, it almost sounds like what I had going on when I was first Dx'd. The pain was so severe and my arm and hand were absolutely useless during an "episode". Now, when I say episode this is what I mean. I would get a shooting pain from my jaw all the way down to my fingers. Sometimes the pain would radiate into my chest and under arm down my side. I was told these episodes were spasticity. I know it hurt like hell and my arm and hand would just lay at my side unable to move and use. I started on Neurontin and eventually the episodes went away. I was Dx'd with fibro in Dec of 07. My neuro started me on Lyrica, but that meant going off the Neurontin. That lasted for 3 weeks and the episodes returned. So now I am back on Neurontin. The episodes are severe and much worse than the pain from the fibro. I've not heard about the foot thing you have going, unless it is part of the foot drop. Check out this sight which was a comfort and information source for me when I was Dx'd. You may find some more answers here. I will keep you in my prayers and hope you get some answers along with treatment that you need. http://www.mult-sclerosis.org/mssymptoms.html Tammy, Txa Gambill wrote: I sent an email a few days ago re symptoms etc. which noone answered except a nice lady in Budapest.
