Marty, take a hard look at what you were 'doing' before and after your onset, and also when you started your meds and if any changes occurred then. One human instinct is to STAY STILL when you hurt, That is good in many ways, but, things happen to your body when you don't move! Your muscles waste, tendons shrink/tighten up and your circulation goes down the drain! You lose muscle tone and vibrancy as a result of non-use. As a result of inactivity, you are able to do less and less. Think about it! If it were me, I'd ask my docs for some Physical therapy to start to re-learn how to use yourself in a better, safer way. Build yourself up in little bitty increments, w/a good therapist, one your doc gives orders to give you the excercises and tools to do simple things at home,....well they add up! To a better and more safely moveable person. That is what we all want to be.
BTW, I've never had any doc, neuro or otherwise decline to write a script for PT within my plan...It took me a couple of tries to find the rite PT, but I found it, and got what I've needed to get stuff going and done.
Hope this helps you get going...to be still is not a good route...You'd be surprised at what you can do! Go surprise yourself...-j
PS let me know how it goes, aside from the 'new' aches?
