I had EXACTLY the same thing several months ago. It used to be so bad I was nauseated and once had to go to the hospital. I'm so sorry you're dealing with it too. I wonder what it is.

Oh Merry, I am so so sorry .
I had the exact same thing too.

I had a Bed Buddy!!! A rice filled sock that is heated in the microwave and is oh so nice.You can make one,or buy them in the drug store.

I think I spent a week in bed,or on the couch with the buddies on my shins,crying.It is awful.Heat worked the best for me...dry heat.Gentle rubs,very gentle.

I hope you feel better soon.

Thank goodness I had this for a short time. A week was way too long. I guess the devils were working their way out of my body.

Also had some pain patches I could cut and apply to the exact spots.

Once I stayed on the meds and put up with this for the week, I felt much better,never had that pain again.

Good luck.
