bone pain

[pncwils]

For a month or more l have bone pain in both shins, calfs and in forearms. dr said take pain killers but not relieving pain, it is like actual bones that hurt and l have pain at the site of an old metarsal fracture area, l am scared in case something serious as l suffer from anklyosing spondilitis, l have also bveen falling asleep at worl - hope you can help

the top opf leg bones feel like growing pains and stretching of the bones the lower shins are just aching all the time and it is the bone
thank you

Did your doctor bother do run any blood tests on you? He should check your potassium levels and magnesium levels.

You should probably have a vitamin D blood level taken as this could be due to a Vitamin D deficiency. I would add some Calcium and Magnesuim to your diet, this should help the pain some.
