Do any of you experience a skaking episode with this? I will feel weak and begin shaking.

    Yes indeed...the shakes...tremors. I had them for two years but not so much now. One Doctor asked me if I drink too much alcohol....rubbish. I certainly do not and was quite offended when she asked me.  The shakes were really bad in my arms but soon spread to my legs and even my face...The specialist told me they were due to the pain....I still don't know for sure.

      Oh my gosh! I can't believe you ask about the eyes! Every single morning my eyes are all stuck together. I've been to eye doctor for it once. I haven't noticed the circles yet.

      Gosh...I didn't realise that other people got this too. My eyes are stuck every morning too but this happens quite a lot during the day also..The mucus causes my vision to be blurred..it is so annoying. I haven't mentioned it to my neurologist but will do when I see her next. I have four damaged vertebrae in my neck so this could be the cause...not sure...also three in my thoracic spine and three in lumbar...with spinal cord stenosis and spurs...Does anyone have any info on this please. Keep in touch Karen...will be good to compare notes..eh...Hugs..G

    Have the shakes off and on. Sometimes it's like the shivers. I think it is the pain and pressure on the nerves in the back and ribs. Sometimes it really hurts to breathe.
