unrelieved pain
by kat54, Oct 16, 2007 02:40PM
I have been diagnosed with hypertension, POTS and small fiber neuropathy and am being treated with Norvasc, Diovan and Lyrica. I still have POTS symptoms 4 - 5 days a week and the neuropathy is some better, but not great. I started having 1 - 2 + lower extremity edema about a month ago and about 2 weeks ago started having joint and muscle pain and muscle weakness that just will not stop. Also have muscle spasms and cramping. I tried taking Ibuprofen 800 mg TID as needed but it does not help. The neurologist suggested taking Alieve OTC for the pain and the relief is a joke (none!). I'm at my wits end from not sleeping and not able to work without pain. Any suggestions?
