Thanks ladies…I am not currently taking magnesium or potassium so thank you for the suggestions! Sweet, I have tried epsome salt baths and they help tremendously while in the tub and for about 45min after. But it quickly returns. I noticed today that I felt pretty good until I got into the truck to drive and shortly after the muscle aches returned and hung out pretty much all day. Amy, It is definately worse at night and I will probably try one of my muscle relaxers tonight. All I have is flexerill, so it’s not much help usually but if it doesn’t go away I have to try something!

Thank you both for the encouragement. I do feel like I am doing good…finally! The best thing is that I finally quit being so scared of what it was going to be like to be completely off. I am really concentrating on just getting through today. It makes such a big difference.

That and I got pissed off at my doctor and now I have that little bit of rage that I can use to prove his ass wrong. I will not fail, It’s not an option. I am going to make this work whatever the cost.
