Seeking Alternatives for Health Issues

[Gaelicgirl1985]

Hi All, Its been a awhile since ive been here in this site, Over the past year i had tried different medications give by my nueros/GP and physical therapist but all seem to make my life more miserable to enjoy (ie.., sleepy at work , drowsiness etc..) . I have changed my mind to try some alternate methods to overcome my issues and i am pretty sure my friends here can help me with this.Problems that i have 1) Stiffness all over my body especially my neck and shoulder are (i have stiffness in my leg , trunk and back) Standing makes its worse2) Muscle pain3) Numbness if i sit or stand or lie down for a while (Numbness depends on which part of the muscle is being used to support)Any alternate medications that i can try that might have worked, not necessarily to say it would work for me but definitely a try wouldnt hurt.Thanks

What was it your were diagnosed with? Was it Stiff Person Syndrome?Have you tried a stretching program. I have obtained a lot of relief from certain aches and pains that go along with my symptoms with stretching. It takes a while to show results but I think it works. Also, do you do any type of light exercise?What is your sleep and diet like?

Hi PuppetPup, I have not been diagnosed with anything yet, even bfs most of the nueros I ask say it's either cervicalgia as far as my neck goes and si joint syndrome for my lower part . I have my birth which I over the last I realized is that my left leg is shorter than my right I have been walking a lik wierd from when I've known but I thought that was just the way I walk . Do you think my symptoms present stiff person syndrome ? Mild stretching does relive a ill bit
