lately my pain seems to come and go

i have been going through periods of not being in pain for a few weeks to then being in pain for another few weeks

this happens very often, is it common among sufferers ? and does anyone experience the same thing?

    Hello Erika13, I like others will probably experience quite similar to what you are describing.I would also like to be able to say that maybe it's getting better,but it's more than likely just a bit of rest till the next episode.

    But on a lighter note here's hoping and suppose you've heard this from the medics take it easy and good luck.

    I understand completely what you are saying.  I've been in a period of pain right now with my legs and feet hurting the most and other parts hurting but just not as much.  I seem to go in a two week cycle of major hurting and then just minor hurts that I can stand.  I wish I know the answer to this but I don't.  I did a lot of walking today even though my legs have been hurting, so I know I will pay for it now.

      i feel the same way my feet and legs are where i experience the most pain, especially in my knees, shins and ankles

      mine also seems to be a lot worse after i have been walking or standing for too long. i was in bed for about two days after a music festival because the pain was that bad i felt as though a truck had run over my legs and feet. definately not fun at all haha 

      thankyou for responding
