PAIN..PAIN..AND MORE PAIN..PLUS SWELLING

Posted on Nov 6, 2009 10:23 AM


For several years now I have had severe leg pain, weakness, left knee clicks and sometimes it feels as if it will go out of joint. I also have a stabbing pain sometimes behind my left knee. I have been diagnosed for Fibromyalgia. Had an MRI on my spine but fell shortly after the MRI. Had some sort of nerve test on both legs and it came out with no problem. An Ultrasound on left leg behind knee came out no problem. Also have asthma. Taking Lyrica once a day which I truly beleives help to a degree, also taking Ultracet for the pain every 4 hours. Occasionally I will tak the very lowest dosage of Xanax to calm me down from all the pain. They also tried Epidurals on me which didn't help and in fact caused a reaction. I also had a Gastric Bypass about 9 years ago. Lost about 90 lbs and put back about 40 lbs. It left me with not being able to eat anything healthy without problems. Junk food is the only thing that can go down easy otherwise it balls up in my chest. I had a hernia surgery also. All in all I keep trying to go on but it has been really difficult in the past month to function. Please tell me what kind of docto to go to that may be able to help me. I'm lost and tired of trying to find the right doctor who just comes to dead ends. I really feel lost and don't know anymore. Please help.
