Donna,

I am sorry you're having a rough time!

I have a lot of pain in my shoulder and knees (birth defect or something). I went to an orthopaedic doctor and he suggested that I correct my posture . I had to point out to him that I have good posture.

Now, my dad has a lot of pain (military accidents and whatnot) and what he does are a variety of stretches and he has a little therapy machine where he puts the little pads (like they use for a heart monitor) on his arm and it's supposed to help (He's had surgery and is on meds, too). It was suggested to me to take potassium for muscle aches.

I'm not sure what else to suggest, though. *hug* We're here for ya, though, and rooting for you!
