Hi Sue,
I am now 45 and I don't have nearly the severe pain I had in my 20-30's, but I sure get the fatique. I have the normal soreness in thenight etc,but do Ok most days. Since it causes me such insomnia, this is the apporch my docotr and I have taken. It also makes sense to only take it when I really need it ,because in most cases the effectiveness lessons due to our own bodies making antibodies . If I can take it twice a year for two month stretches I feel I win both ways. I can see when I was younger, I would have needed it all the time. I am grateful those days are over with. The last big flare was my feet about four years ago and I sure wish it had been available then. But even my feet settled on their own after a year and a half.
All The Best,
Janet
P>S
I take Neurontin at bedtime and Amit. just increased the Neurontin and I am sleeping, but then have side effects, sometimes fel like I can't win, but then think back to the years when I crawled to the bathroom, not able to stand due to S.I joints so inflammed.
