Just curious, do any of you have sore knees, elboes, feet, or muscles? I feel like I've run a marathon or lifted too many weights a lot of the time.
Anyway, I've been giving the antibiotics a try. Interestingly, my symptoms have migrated away from my legs..... the weakness has improved at least 50%. Although, my face/arms/upper body are doubly weak and numb instead. Still have a nasty sore throat too.
I'm only on the Biaxin at the moment.... tommorrow I'm going to start taking the plaquenil too.
Still, I probably have something like MS. And all this is to no avail.
arg. I'm still waiting to have my MRI interpreted.... My neuro hasn't gotten back to me with a follow up apointment yet either. Maybe I'll be taken more seriously if they find something.

steerpike,
I've got the pain too. I get pain all over at various times, but most of my pain is in my ankles and feet. My feet especially hurt when I first wake up in the morning and if I where closed in shoes. I used to where high heels every day but now my feet hurt in flats. I can where running shoes and feel like I have been walking for days within the first hour. I usually just suffer from the pain but if it becomes too much I take pain killers.
I too was not taken seriously at my first neuro appointment. I left feeling luck a nut :dizzy: I have, after procrastinating for months, started a journal of my symptoms. Originally I had decided not to go back until I was unable to walk or something. I realize that would be crazy. I hope that taking the journal will make it easier to explain what I have been going through.
