Yo Elizabeth,
Wecome back! Wondered where you were and if you were OK. I'm glad it's 'only' physical rather than emotional pain (although I'm only too aware of how one can cause the other). I haven't tried prolotherapy, but a few friends have and have reported great results. It may be paid for by insurance. The website is www.prolotherapy.com.If you can find a warm water pool, hydrotherapy exercises can help alot. Also, regular stretching done in a hot tub. I have a bad case of fibromyalgia and agree wholeheartedly with IsoM. Movements to keep limber are essential and flowing dance seems to help me out the most. Of course, I say this as I'm getting ready to crawl back into bed at 3:00 pm. Hey, it's a rainy Sunday, I hurt, and I just don't wanna!! I'll keep you in my thoughts. - Barbara
