Thank you for advising. I realize your time is valuable and appreciate the service you are providing here.

I am a chronic headache sufferer (vascular, muscle contraction combination).
The last 3 days my joints have ached terrible. My ankle pain is the most obvious as when I stand it is very painful. My neck next, hipbones, knees, and finger pain. If I sit for 10 miinutes or so I am stiff and it is hard to move around. I took relafin and it seemed to relieve the ache some but I can still feel a dull ache....

What is going on? Do you think the joint pain is related to the headaches? This joint aching came along the same time as a snow storm...which at first I thought was related because my knee always aches when it rains, snows...but not my whole body!

Thank you very much....
