I am an extremly active 59 yr old female. I have gained 38 lbs or more over the past 3 years. I eat very little. I clean houses 2 times per week that takes me 8 to 10 hours. I also am a live in care giver for an obese woman & some times ya just have to lift her. But, litterally, over night, my hips, the joints, started hurting very bad.Also my lower back & has now moved into the groin area. I m now walking with an extreme limp. After cleaning a house, that same night, I awoke racked in pain like I never experienced before. From the hips, swollen knees, to the groin area & swollen feet, I could not move- at all. It was that painful. It took me at least an hour to lift one leg to the floor. I could not walk at all. I went to 3 specialists with no answer. No rehitoid artritis, no gout. I have been going to a pain clinic 20 years every 2 months due to lumbar facet disease. Plus on opiat medication which does nothing now. This pain doc is not using steroid but some kind of cocktail injections. He is a very good doctor with an impecible reputation. He s even been on T. V. 2 times!!! Last week, the very same thing happened to me again. After over an hour to crawl out of bed, I wrapped myself in ice packs. This time after the last incindent, It left me feeling unwell for the next 3 days. Please do not tell me that I am getting older. I am sick of hearing this. I have always been extremly active but what ever this is, it s slowing me to a crawl. And it happened like the very next day. no onset of symptons, nothing. I ve also gone to a chiropracter with no relief. Please, have you ever heard of any thing like this? My e-mail is YYYY@YYYY
