Has anyone ever noticed this?

I am apparently in the midst of a flare courtesy of my 9 day hospital

stay due to asthma exacerbation. My pain isn't all over, but instead is

in every area where I ever sustained any kind of injury (from sports

mostly). Does that make sense? It's almost as if the monster has

decided those are the areas to attack.

I'm on Lyrica 150 mg 2x a day now. Taking either naproxen, robaxin or

in severe instances darvocet, for the breakthrough pain.

Also using a hot pad on the areas when they get really bad (which helps

some). And I am using a natural essential oil (wintergreen) on the

areas which seems to be helping as well.

Just curious if anyone else had noticed this when they are in a flare?

I've wondered about that also. I had to have a hysterectomy a few years ago and

now I hurt almost as bad as I did before the surgery. This is just not fair.

You get the problem taken care of but you still have to deal with the pain. Oh

the joys of fibro.
