Sever Joint Pain!!!! HELPPPP

Congratulations to your soon to be newest member.

I have severe joint pain and the doctors don't know what is wrong. I have gone to physical therapy and it never worked. With having one child already and one one the way, I can see stress coming up a lot in your life.

I am on a new regime in the mornings. I am taking a new product called Generate 1000 that is high in colostrum...Something a newborn needs after they are born. It is all natural and I am now pain free and am able to pick up anything without feeling I will drop it. I am also going through menopause and I am no longer taking medication for it.

If you want more information, you can go to twinow.com/jlwagner. For more information, you can go to twihealth.com/jlwagner and read the newsletter. I can assure you that it will help. If you have thyroid problems, it will also help control this and eventually take you off your medication.

Please call me and I will tell you more about the product and why it can help you. My number is: ###-###-####.

Sweetie I dont think this has anything to do with your pregnancy...??
Go see the Dr right away. Go to the professionals instead of guessing and asking and suffering.
How old are you? Arthritis? Are you taking meds for anything?(alergy reaction)ETC.

God bless,

Wendy

This sounds so familiar. At the beginning of my pregnancy with my first son I started to have really bad back pains. Then my joints hurt so bad that it was hard to walk or do any normal everyday activities. Then it got even worse ... I started to get shooting pains down my arms and legs that would make me suddenly lose muscle control in that limb. My entire pregnancy was extremely painful and the doctor couldn't figure out what was wrong. It wasn't until 7 years (and another baby) later that a new doctor referred me to an orthopedic doctor that ordered a MRI of my spine. The MRI showed that I have Degenerative Disk Disease (DDD). Throughout both my pregnancies, the nerves in my spine were being pinched every time I, or my baby, moved. The MRI also showed that I have sever arthritis in my upper spine. The doctor said that since I have it in my spine, there's no doubt that arthritis is the cause of all my joint pain. At the time of my MRI, I was only 27 years old.

If your pains don't start shooting down your limbs, then I wouldn't worry about DDD. But right now it sounds like arthritis is a definite possibility. You are probably not going to be able to figure out the actual cause of your pains until after your new bundle of joy arrives because you may need a MRI or x-rays.

I wish you the best of luck! I know it's difficult to care for a 2 year old when you're in so much pain. I hope your pain is only temporary and you'll be able to pleasantly enjoy the rest of your pregnancy.

Hello Sarah,

I hope you're feeling better by now. do you have arthritis? if so, then nightshade foods can make it worse. for example, tomatoes, potatoes, spinach, eggplants, tobaco. I can't eat spinach (and LOVE baby spinach) all my joint hurt -- it started after my 2nd pregnancy) I'm also gluten intolerant and if I eat any wheat/gluten I get a lot of muscle and joint pain. if blood tests don't show anything...do consider keeping track of what you eat and how it makes you feel (up to 36 hours later). Good luck!

hi-
so sorry you are having pain and discomfort. i would ask your doctor to test your thyroid levels. this happened to me and i went through my whole pregnacy, and 4 months after, with an unknown hypothyroid issue. symptoms are extreme fatigue and joint/muscle aches (among others). it is an easily corrected problem. good luck and i hope you are feeling better soon!

Hi Sarah,

I have something that may help you, it's called Zrii. It's an herbal supplement, all natural (no preservatives/additives, etc) and safe to take while pregnant. One of the main ingredients is Amalaki which is known to have anti-inflamatory properties. This a great feel good juice! Please contact me and I can give you more information.

Hi Sarah.

Did you do anything physical & out of your ordinary routine to provoke the joint pain? Like start any new yoga or pilates class? I usually recommend glucosamine & chondroitin(often comes as a combo supplement) for someone who has arthritis type pain in the joints.

Good Luck.

Hi
I would get your thyroid rechecked. Achy joints are a symptom, and pregnancy can wreak havoc on your thyroid. It will need to be monitored closely throughout your pregnancy. I had to more than double my dosage throughout my 2nd pregancy
Good luck

Dear Sarah, this does not sound normal to me either. I would try to get as much rest as I could if I were you. Follow the doctors advice for now, if only to prove him/her wrong. Give the therapy a little time to work. If I did't feel better soon I would push my doctor for answers better than the one's he/she has given you so far. I hope you feel better very quickly.

Debilitating joint pain is NOT OKAY! Particularly with your history of thyroid issues, request that your doctor order an ANA blood test- anti-nuclear antibodies - the hallmark of auto-immune issues. And PLEASE DON'T take supplements without the advice of your doctor, or a naturopath! I think they're great, but under supervision only during pregnancy. Best of luck! By the way, any recent illness/flu symptoms or rash recently? If so, mention this to your doctor. Be a squeeky wheel. ADVOCATE for your health and your baby's!

I experienced this but not when I was pregnant. I went to the doctor and had blood drawn. I was diagnosed with two things, so I wasn't sure which one caused the pain. The two things were limes disease, which comes from a tick bite, and monocucleosis, which we used to call "the kissing disease". I don't know if you're pain is pregnancey related or not. Go have a blood test done to find out for sure.
