Hi Kaya,
thanks for your response, it was good of you to take the time to write, when you are suffering yourself! My pain is widespread throughout most of my body, as I suffer from Fibromyalgia Syndrome and also from Osteoarthritis, as well as Interstital Cystitis or Painful Bladder Syndrome, which is excruciatingly painful to the point of not being able to stand up or sit at times. I feel I am in a vicious circle of trying to avoid having pain killers and then getting in too much pain and having to have them, or having to have stronger ones. It is pretty awful trying to function at work feeling dreadful all of the time with the pain and with re-current infections too!!! I find it very difficult to sleep properly too because of feeling ill, or being in pain. It is funny you should mention about the Amalgam fillings, as I have just had one replaced, and only have two of them left in my mouth which I am planning to have replaced in the next two weeks, so it will be interesting to see if anything changes after that! I also suffer from chronic daily headaches and frequent migraines despite being on migraine prevention medication. I do try to help myself as much as possible, but am stuck in this cycle of pain and illness from which there doesn’t seem to be any escape, despite all of my best efforts!!! I really hope that you have more better days, and less worse days asap.
Best wishes for good health and less pain!
