Hey everyone,
My husband started having severe pain in his joints about a year a go.The doctors thought athritis.About 2 months ago he started having trouble sleeping, muscle weakness,muscle pain with very little activity, tightness in the muscles to the point he can barely get out of bed in the mornings, headaches.. they did a nerve conductivity and we were told it was normal but borderline and that his blood had a high protein levels. About a month ago we found a lump in his arm..not on the surface but in the muscle under the skin. This arm he can barely use and cries out in pain when he tries. He has been on so many meds but is now on tramidol 300 mg a day and it barely touches the pain. today we are going for a ultra sound and xray of his arm but the doctors are not telling us anything...just keep giving him more meds.He is going to a rhuemitologist next week but they said it was not for athritis. I can relate to his flustration and can understand due to my own experience. I am worried though any ideas?
