severe back pain
May 18, 2009 01:16AM in the Multiple Sclerosis Community
For the past 2 weeks or so I have had the most excruciating back pain radiating to my legs. I've been trying to blow it off the Fibromyalgia but it has only gotten worse.

Thanks! My teeth are not the best in the world but I have taken care of them somewhat. The neuro told me that some have swelling but said nothing about the red streaks. They run along the same pattern as the nerve does that is why I was confused. I have to see 2 dr's tomorrow. My GP and pn management. I will asked them about it. I have had a real hard ...
