Hi I recently have been having horrible joint pain in multiple places. It has come on so suddenly and wakes me up at night. Along with this I have been getting rashes and I feel just awful. Any ideas what I do? Help? Thanks

Anti-Inflammatory and pain med's are the only thing that help. Try taking Vitamins to build up Vit D for leg cramps. I also found taking Tums help, they have a lot of calcium, in them.

I too have this. The Dr. prescribed me Flexeril for bedtime and upped the nighttime dosage of my gabapentin. Yes the pain, spasms, and Charlie horses will wake you right on up it's horrible. Most important thing is let Rheumatologist know about it and keep a journal of what happened, what time ect. for the Dr.
