sore bum?

Posted , 9 users are following.

Hi everyone. When I was first diagnosed (six weeks ago) my rheumatology pain consultant asked a load of questions including " Do the muscles in your buttocks hurt?" I told him that they hurt constantly.....every time I stand up from sitting or bending over. I am always moaning to my husband about "My buttocks are killing me" It's the constant war cry all day long in our house. Getting out of bed in the morning is just a nightmare with every part of my body in pain and stiff. I just wondered if anyone else suffers with this as it gets me down and I have to think twice before rising from the couch or picking up something from the floor. These were automatic things I did in the past without giving it a second thought. I mourn for those days and wish they were back again!

    I've had fibromyalgia since I was 18, I'm 28 now! It gets harder everyday.

    Slightest little thing becomes a huge task but to anyone else it will be easy and makes you feel stupid and worthless. That's something that I can't deal with.

    I have had pain in the back for a long time but only recently I've started with this awful pain in my bottom.

    The pain is so bad that I cannot move til it wears off a bit!!

    Its worse at night and always when I'm sitting or laying down.

    Wish I knew what it was! I'm off to docs this week if he can tell me I'll tell you lol.

    I'm on paracetamol 4 Times a day and 50 mcg fentanyl patches and even they don't take the pain away!
