Every morning for the last 3 years! My family knows to leave me alone until I can get going, most days with a low dose of tramadol!

Yes, had this for 22 years, along with pain and stiffness everywhere.
It's starting to get better with doxy and plaquenil.

It is due to the infection....for me it is part of the "fibromyalgia".

Yes, I had it horribly. It drove me insane. Baclofen helps a tad. Valium when it was really bad. I too believe infection.

Me too. There's another recent post on "symptoms worse in the morning." For me it takes stretching, tramadol, maybe a bath to get going. I do best with 2 hours, but usually only get 45 mins.

Pain in soles of feet and knees - very stiff, feel as if I am 20 years older than I am. No back pain though.

Try a Sleep Number bed or an air mattress. The inflammation caused by the infection makes you very sensitive to the pressure points caused by the springs in a regular mattress. I got a Sleep Number while I was trying to figure out what was wrong with me in 2003 - totally love it. Muscle relaxants at bed time will also help

Back pain, but mine is upper back between shoulder blades and a stiff neck. A heating pad sometimes helps.

I am going to second what Julie said about the sleep number bed.
I have had back surgery for a herniated disc. If I try to sleep on a regular mattress I hurt all over My neck, back, hips all hurt.
A sleep number bed has been the best investment. My daughter loves it too. She has a lot of pain from the lyme infection, but the sleep number bed really helps.
We would like to buy her one also. They are not as cheap as a regular mattress, but not as expensive as a Temperpedic.
