They prescribed me Tramadol. It didn't work. I had to take Tylenol also with it. Try hot bath's and heating pads.

I try to push myself to work through the pain . I hurt everyday but long hot bath or showers help some . Tart Cherry pie, green teal Vit B12 helps and relax if I have time.

I used to be in pain a lot. I still am but I try not to think about it. I'll take naproxen 375mg if needed to rest. I do so much now being acitve, about to start a new job I don't have time for sickness.

I struggle with this every day. I'm also on tramadol and I've been on prednisone for years. Those aren't final answers but I do believe they make a small dent in my pain. I have other stronger pain killers for really awful days, but I try to use heat or ice on the extremely painful places before going to those. In my case, exercise makes me worse, not better.
