Hi, I have several medical problems. So my symptons can be anything. I had spinal fusion in September. I also have 3 herniated discs in my neck. I have a tear in the tendon on my elbow. I was doing well with the sugery until December. I have horrible tailbone pain and pain on both sides of the scar. I know that is back related. The past few weeks my entire body hurts. It feels like what arthritis would feel like. I'm only 42. My fingers hurt. Both arms hurt. My knees and feet hurt. My neck is killing me. Even my head is throbbing with sinus pain. The dr. said I don't have all the trigger points for Fibro. Do you need all of them? The dr. thinks I am depressed. She gave me Effecor (sp?) for it. I also take 1800 mg of Neurontin, 2400 mg of Skelaxin for the nerve and muscle pain. I was taking Ultram ER and then Darvocet but didn't help. I am taking Oxycodone when needed. I also take Dextroamphetamine for Narcolepsy. All I know is the pain is killing me. I was sent for a brain MRI, bone density test and x-ray. I have an echo scheduled for tomorrow because the dr. hears my heart problem louder then usual. Still I don't feel depressed. I don't feel sad. She said it could be a chemical imbalance. Any ideas?
