This is me too...I'm STILL having 'growing pains' but I'm not growing anymore

and the pain is 100 times worse and almost constant. I can remember having

lots of pains that my mom called growing pains ever since I was about 12.

I really don't remember any growing pains I had growing up. I stopped growing in

the 8th grade. I have had a lot of leg pain since I graduated from college. It

just started off minor aching, but now it's pretty bad. My mother has the same

problem, but she doesn't have fibro. Weird. Now my son, when he has a growth

spurt he is in severe pain. His legs hurt very bad. I give him advil, but that

is all. I also tell him to take a shower and stand so the warm water can hit his

legs. My other 3 haven't complained of leg pain. I hope they don't have to

experiance it.
