Bones, joints and muscles all hurt. OUCHY HELP

My lower back is killing me, mid back is sore.  Every time I eat my stomach feels so sore and tight and bloated it's unreal.  Drinking even just a glass of water can bring it on.  I look 6 months pregnant.  I've been dealing with my BP shooting up again (165/95 range) maybe due to constant pain.  
I also get massive headaches that come and go in waves were they may only last 5-30 seconds.  I have also had issues with shooting pains threw out my entire body like a traveling lightning bolt.  Sigh.  I've told my doctors about the spams threw out my body now for the last 7-8 years.  They have no answers.  Weather changes seem to bring those spasms on but they can flare up at any time.  

I feel like my body is made out of glass and is about ready to shatter apart due to pressure.  I just want to scream some days.  

I live in a small town that don't believe in giving out pain pills anymore.  The only way I can cope is by having a few stiff drinks at night for relief and to be able to sleep some......in which is not helping me health wise.  
I've been trying sweet mint crushed in my ice water and looking into different herbs to grow that might help.  Thinking about trying vervein, kava kava or Ginger.  Nothing is helping anymore.  

Short history....I do have type ll diabetes (only is high when forced to drink sugar drink so I call it pre diabetes), have had been told also that I have IBS in which has been acting up lately.  I know tmi.  I have hypothyroidism, and meds for it.  I also take BP meds, low dose asperin and diaretics for edema, vitamin D and E also.  All directed by my doctor.

Anyone have a clue on what can be causing this pain?  
Also would love any suggestions for pain relief!
Any suggestions on a specific type of doctor/s?
Please Help I'm at my whits end in pain, and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  
Thank you in advance.

Nerve damage in your spine can cause the shooting pains, nueropathy , even the constipation bloating if signals aren't getting where they should and diabetes causes nueropathy too, Nuerontin calms the nerves great med
