Saturday, September 26, 2009 at 07:24 PMThanks for your reply Karen. I was diagnosed in September 2006 but spent a year prior to that undiagnosed. My meds over all work fantastic. I just had an increase less than 6 months ago and it has made a huge difference. Even in the very beginning when I was just starting out on the drug the improvements were like night and day. The pain I suffered with before any pain meds at all was excruciating. I had never felt so much pain in my entire life! My ribs were so painful I couldn't even roll over in bed at night!! The painful back area occurs very rarely. After spending most of today with ice and heat I am starting to feel a tad better compared to yesterday. Thanks again for your reply. I appreciate you taking the time. Enjoy your weekend!
