I am currently suffering from extreme pain in my neck and shoulder which sometimes moves to my arm. What exactly is causing this? Is there hope that this will go away when my lymes is under control? This pain is constant but so severe in the mornings that I am literally screaming and crying in pain. It feels as if someone is pouring hot melted steel into my neck and shoulder. I have been prescribed oxycodone 5mg 3 times per day and nuerotin 300mg 3 times per day but still have no relief until about midday when it seems to be less severe but still present. I have not read anything or heard of anything like this. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there hope of one day not having pain like this?

Gracie - I'm sorry you're dealing with horrible pain.

Pain has (and still is) my worst symptom.

If it's nerve pain - maybe you can discuss with your Dr. about a higher dose of Neurontin? I have seen it can go to 1800 mg daily.
If it still doesn't work..there is an alternative - Lyrica. Maybe it would be worth a try.


The Neurontin didn't help me...but I didn't take a very high dose...I may try it again at some point.

The only thing to help my excruciating pain has been bvt ...kratom took the edge off but bvt has stopped the nerve damage .make sure to keep your bowels moving if your going to stick with the opiods

Thank you both for the information. I am sorry you both have experienced this but it is nice to know I'm amoung friends. Every bit of information is so helpful. What is bvt? What is kratom?

Gracie, gentle hugs to you! I find relief from the supplement turmeric and gabapentin.

BVT is bee venom therapy

Kratom is a pain killer.

is it nerve pain or muscle ache-like pain?
Posted 7/15/2017 3:08 AM (GMT 0)
It is most definitely nerve pain

Where are you located?

Is medicinal marijuana legal where you are (or maybe it's completely legal depending upon which state). Or CBD?

Ah yes, the Commonwealth state. I use to live there.

MJ is one of the best pain/inflammation relievers that exists. It really needs to be legal everywhere.

What is your detoxing routine?

Isn't CBD oil legal in all states, It's got almost nil thc in it.

I suppose CBD oil is legal after looking into it. Anyone have any suggestions on a brand? I have just learned about detoxing within the past few days. I have been doing the epsom salt baths and 2lemons squeezed into 1 cup water drinking over 30 min. Drinking tons of lemon water. Should I be doing more?

The website I posted above is a good company for CBD oil.

Yes you should do more detoxing.

Dry brush your skin prior to baths

Take a liver support supplement.

Take Nutramedix Pinella and Burbur.

That's a few more ideas.

Are you taking probiotics daily?

Taking a binder - eg Activated Charcoal is another one

Here's a link to a site for more ideas

Thank you everyone! I just started detoxing yesterday am I'm either crazy or it's making a huge difference. I have slept better, seem to have a little less pain, and I overall have more energy. I was able to run my vacuum today which I have not been able to do for weeks!!. Small victory but I now have some hope!

That's great, Gracie!


Keep it up!
