Hi Jan:

Yes, it could be nerve pain, either sciatic or fibro

caused. My pain in the low back is confined to my

sacroiliac joints, and my doctor feels it is RA

related. The leg pain, though, is thought to be from

the fibro more than RA. I take Lyrica and Cymbalta

which help with the pain I have in my legs. It is an

aching, deep bone pain, from my hip down into my legs

and shins, and is sometimes a burning pain or stabbing

pain. It is not fun! Yes, you should talk with your

doctor about this - the meds I take work for me, but

maybe not for you - but you could mention it to him.

Take care -
