I have blood clots in both lungs. I don't have blood clots in my legs as it's been checked out, but yet I still expereince severe pain.
My knee is swollen and black and blue but don't know why. I have pain under my leg, and I have pain that goes down the tibia of my leg into my foot.
All I know is I have severe pain and nothing is helping it. I see and ortho. Dr. September 1, 2011.
Any idea's wny the pain and what to do?

With all my pain this is all I have and it's not working.

I can't take the ibuphron as it interfers with my acid refluz issues and if I were to cut myself or whatever I have trouble stopping the bleeding.
I don't know what else to take besides Tylonal.

Being in pain daily, not sleeping, being under severe stress daily at work and other things aren't helping my mental condition.
I get about 4 hours of sleep a night and it's not a restful sleep. When I sleep I have bad dreams and end up fighting, hitting, kicking in my sleep. My poor husband is getting the crap kicked out of him and I don't even know it.
All I can say is it is what it is!

I'm in great pain with my back. I have a herniated disk in my lower back. I've already had L4 and L5 removed and ray cages put in their place. The disk now out of place is below them.
My knee bothers me often, but getting better. Same as neck issues where the problem with my knee is it gets very very stiff and I have trouble bending it as it feels like fluid on it.
This all really disables me from doing much of anything strenuous. I'm still in Physical Therapy for all of the above. My Therapist says I'm under so much stress that it's tensing all my muscles.
I take no pain medication. Dr. just wants me to take Tylonal and Ibuphron together daily.
I see a Dr. on Tuesday about a bunch of things because besides all my pain, my iron, vitamin D, hemoglobin being so low that isn't helping. I have a muscle in my right arm that has been so swollen for so many years that now for some reason it's spasming. I get a spasm in it and the pain shoots down my arm into my hand and my hand flexes into a crippling position for about 15-20 seconds. My hands hurt so bad that I can't close them tight because of the pain. I have no strength in them at all.
Now put all the above together and I know why I'm having such a hard time working a Full Time Job. But I have a mortgage to pay for and I need health insurance.
I'm so stressed out.
