to take a hot bath almost every night to make it stop. It has been

letting them massage my legs. But I've never been on meds for it.

Hinky - for me hot baths are wonderful for all my pain - if I had the time

I'd be in the tub at least 3 times a day. We've been talking about getting

a hot tub but need to save up for that. Some friends of ours have one and

hubby and I would go over there quite often to use it and it was very

soothing as far as pain (at least for a little while). They've since moved

and I really miss those soaks. But I take a hot bath at least daily -

especially after working when my body is screaming for relief - a muscle

relaxer, a hot bath and a couple of magazines later and I feel a little

better. Have to do whatever works.
