we'll see if my knees are screaming later but so far it's looking like twisty shin bones may be the solution to my weird femurs....
#a little bit of aching is fine and expected#as long as it's soft tissue stuff not bone grinding pain#but my hike felt good i had full use of all my muscles and my hip was very stable#I'm thinking something like an orthotic would help with the retraining process#but otherwise i think i can largely just reposition everything through working the muscles#huge W for me if so

Me: Hey these things are causing issues and getting in the way of my everyday life. Do you know what's wrong?
Every medical professional @ me when my body does the Thing™️:
#it speaks#chronic pain#I have watched the life drain from an ER doctors eyes as he questions everything he's learned when all my test results come back normal#but he can visibly see something is wrong#or the xray tech that just went /oh/ at my severly limited range of motion but the xrays came back fine#or the seasoned physical therapist who told me in all his thirty years he's seen everything but he hasn't seen whatever my leg was doing#or the multiple doctors who've questioned if I was having seizures when tests have shown I'm not#even had a chiro watch my leg speedrun seizing going from a little bent to against my chest as my whole body spasms in like 3 minutes#he was fighting a losing battle trying to straighten my leg but the muscles had zero give and I couldn't flex it or move it#so it just spasmed more and more upwards#but he also noted that my hip felt and looked fine so he just stood there confused as he watched#and then it popped one high pitched one deep and I was fine and he was flabbergasted#time to scare the neurologist next

hi i was wondering if you or any of your followers had tips for dealing with chronic muscle pain (specifically hip and knee).
nothing i’ve tried has seemed to help (pt, otc pain meds, ice, heat, rest, acupuncture, cbd lotion, epson salt baths, stretching). and i’ve peen told that the only pain meds that would help would be narcotics (which i can’t take due to family).
also everybody has seemed to circle back to “it’s because of your mental health that everything is shit”. and doctors refuse to do any tests past moving my legs around and poking at them.
so i will try almost anything. thank you
i’m so sorry you’re dealing with this, i have chronic muscle pain & i know it can easily be so debilitating. regardless of whether there’s a relationship with stress or whatever, your physical symptoms should still be fucking treated! the abject cruelty of not managing your pain aside, it’s almost like it’s harder to handle mental experiences when you’re in pain all the time… you don’t deserve this bullshit & i’m really sorry 🖤
i am suspicious of your being told that only narcotics would help tbh — i don’t doubt that many folks need narcotics to effectively treat their pain, & opioids have definitely been the most effective treatment for me when i have access to them (although more for nerve stuff than muscle) but there are definitely medications you haven’t been offered yet that might be helpful.
idk if you suspect that your muscle pain may be related to chronic illness but my muscle pain (including what was dismissed as untreatable fibromyalgia symptoms) improved dramatically when i got on an immunosuppressant (hydroxychloroquine in my case). if you haven’t gotten a basic rheumatology blood panel done by your GP it could be worth a shot as my elevated inflammatory markers led to that prescription even though i’m definitely underdiagnosed.
i’m also like, really pissed nobody’s given you a muscle relaxer jesus christ. i’m on 4mg tizanidine from my PCP & it’s been immensely helpful for my muscle pain, i choose to take it probably once a week because it’s more effective at knocking me out all night that way lol but i also use it as a rescue medication when i’m having severe cramps. really helpful to just get a fucking break & some decent sleep every so often. in that thread i’m planning to ask about starting prazosin at my next appointment, it’s prescribed for nightmares (which i def have lol) but can prompt a certain level of muscle relaxation which is part of how it helps with sleep
idk if this is an option for you due to family etc but delta8 (weed equivalent that’s technically legal in the US) has been vital for managing my own pain. expensive as shit but so it goes.
idk if you already use a mobility aid or if that’s an option for you but it could be worth looking into! redirecting some of the force applied to your muscles might make things like walking easier or could help with balance if you experience sudden weakness / cramps.
super depends on your situation but it could be worth paying attention to your feet as well, getting plantar fasciitis house shoes vastly improved my knee-hip-back pain, knees in particular. mine was more joint related than muscular but from studying biomechanics it’s all interrelated & from my perspective anything that helps may make it a bit easier to keep going until you find a better long-term solution. so even if it doesn’t seem related to your pain if there’s anything that might make your life easier right now i encourage you to consider it!
other folks feel free to respond with things that have been effective for you! i really hope you find some solutions that make things more bearable for you 💓💓

is there an actual medical reason why my body just doesn’t respond to medication and if there is please tell me it can be fixed bc this some bullshit
#ive tried easily over a dozen medications that just did absolutely nothing#and i mean no benefits no side effects even at increased dosages#all for different things like blood pressure heart rate salt increase contraception the works#then theres pain killers#talk about a waste of fucking time#ive tried at least 8 different pain killers that all have different bases and different things they fix#in the last five days ive tried four different meds#and theyve done absolutely nothing#one of which was a post surgery med my dad was prescribed and it literally just made me high for an hour and didnt touch my pain#how the hell does that happen#my ribs are so fucked#and its going into my stomach and hips bc of the way ive been holding myself to compensate for it#and i literally did nothing to trigger it#i know its muscle bc i used rapigel and it instantly went freezing cold#but i also had a long hot magnesium bath and used a topical muscle relaxer spray and none of it did shit#ive done heat ive done cold ive done sitting ive done laying down#im trying some endone we have left over tomorrow and if that does nothing then theres literally nothing else to do#theres nothing else#what the fuck am i supposed to do#coming out of my cage and ive been doing just fine.txt#spoonie#chronic pain#pots#postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome#fibromyalgia#ehlers danlos syndrome#chronic illness

hello i love you how are you and your broken pelvis doing?
hope that you heal quickly 💕
hello thankyou, i wouldn't say we're best friends but we are back on speaking terms. come to a truce. we're discussing terms and conditions.
#my left knee however#the leg i am allowed to stand on#did put on a protest today so that was extremely fun#my pelvis actually is fine it's the rest of my body that is trading off having a go#which actually is my fault i am going through a period of fucking around with the drug doseages as per instructions#and i do not have the best stomach#anyway the pelvis is used to this kind of abuse#i literally spent probably a thousand dollars this year fixing my hip/lower back issue from six years ago lmfao#'you need to strengthen your hips' what if i just break one and lose all of my muscle#what if i practise my one leg chair stands but only on the left side#these notes have gotten out of my control i was just here to make one funny comment#anyway very thankful i fixed my back because that actually would have caused more pain#god works in mysterious ways#aka a very clear message to stop fucking around and quit your job#but also fix that first and have eight hundred dollars a week for your troubles

it's amazing how a few nightly stretches can diminish my pain significantly and yet i do not do them
#don't get me wrong they do jack shit for 95% of my chronic pain#for the absolute bullshit my knees and hips are pulling due to unhealed injuries though... they help#basically all of the muscles are tying themselves in knots at all times#and that's what like. 75% of the pain is. it's not the injury it's the muscles trying to compensate for it#anyway i really need to get back into a proper stretching routine#both for this and because if i ever go back to dance I'll be useless#i mean. I'm struggling with walking atm. so idk if dance is ever on the cards tbh#but i live in hope. and stretching would make it a bit more likely#painblogging

please please please can something good happen to me now 🙏
#kitty is sick (and has been in renal failure since 2021) and i'm very worried about him#chronic pain is chronic pain-ing AND i pulled a muscle in my hip the other week which is still excruciating#still can hardly leave the house still can barely see friends still spend most of my time in bed still can't work or study or exercise.#my m*m is STILL the worst person on planet earth and i still have to live in her house and pay her rent#waiting to hear back from the pain specialist for weeks about a procedure i don't want to do and can't afford#and it almost definitely won't help 👍 but then once i'm done w him it's litch really back to the drawing board like NO ONE can figure out#what's wrong w me in 10+ yrs or even bare minimum treat my symptoms. absolutely going balls to the walls insane besties

i wish i knew what exactly was causing this leg pain so i could accurately treat it :)
#in my kaz brekker era again#it's like. a deep ache and pressure pain (caused by putting weight on as in the ache grows over time as I use it but it doesn't twinge or#come suddenly) that. well. it was in my ankle but it's kinda spread up to my mid shin. it'll go back down. and it's in my calf and lower#knee :) overuse is def partially the cause but idk what muscles or whatever are irritated so i don't know what i should avoid or what i#should take etc. i was told by a doc that my right hip might be weaker and my leg is taking the brunt of everything but#Once Again I Don't Know What To Do About That!

the monday blues are getting me especially hard after a four day weekend of being curled up in bed and playing pretend with my wife 😔😔
daydreaming about the lesbians in our heads SAVE ME
#*dykeposting#ttrpg ramble incoming in these tags oops#we uh. may have accidentally added another dyke to talia's polycule lmao#originally she was SUPER monogamous but then she accidentally had chemistry w another butch that she's not actually w anymore#and then on the last replay we gave her an ex that OBVIOUSLY she got back together with. bc ofc.#and now on the last replay she had so much chemistry w her ex's ex so now we are replaying again and trying it out lmao#we just do this endless cycle of replaying the same game over and over to test out Different Scenarios#it's honestly really fun? it's like fanfiction but we get to make out#anyway. i love talia my pretty pink muscle princess being surrounded by all of these working class butches w rough hands who will do +#+ woodworking and construction projects w her. it's amazing#gideon (the ex) and wyatt (the ex's ex) are union girls. Hot.#i think castor is probably also in a union bc she's into construction also but wyatt and gideon are both going to go into union organizing#which is just. delicious#collective bargaining is so sexy#wyatt also might be a werewolf. bc i'm predictable#the were-folks in my wife's setting have chronic pain bc of the shifting that gets worse around full moons (esp in winter)#and talia and wyatt had this cute scene were talia found her on a hike after the full moon and rubbed her hips for her +#+ while they had a deep convo about their childhood traumas and then made out. peak lesbian behavior

The annoying thing abt my back causing nerve ??? Problems (aside from the fact that nerve pain/tightness down my entire left side + pain and muscle spasms is, generally, annoying) is that it gets to a point where it starts bothering my foot too and making it feel like somethings weird and trapped there but it is actually just. my back. being a problem
#also WHY do I have nerve problems#my dad and sister make sense bc they’ve had surgeries or spinal injuries that led to it#I just have one (1) overactive problem muscle#(this is not true)#anyway my hip/back feels bad#and my whole ankle/bottom of my foot is full of pins and needles and also pain >:(#and I am frustrated#personal

boy howdy i love being in pain its so fun!!!!!!!
#i fucked my hip up really bad like 3 weeks ago#went to the chiropractor today and i can walk without limping now#but theres still a lot of muscle soreness and tension#(yes i am aware of the dubious nature of chiropractic stuff but it does substantially help with pain)#(and so i will accept the risks associated for the pain relief that i get)
