Used to get really bad back spasms the type that confines you bed and you can't move I stopped taking tea, coffee and soft drinks since then not had a really bad flare up hope you improve rest and take it easy until it passes.

Hi Lucy. Reading your description of your flare ups sound exactly like mine.

You've described me..lucy10..I've had worse 3month yet..I'm really struggling and my back lower upper and neck..had to buy rocker kettle because I can't lift kettle! The pains burning numbness in my legs been permanently there past 4yr and are awful in bed..seriously even light touch on my legs or feet is excruciating pain, I also get stabbing pains in my big toes especially. Just lately the daytime pelvic pain just shoots pain and is crippling. Do you get pain in your hip? Especially on outer side when slightly pressed..I feel it more when trying to walk on flares like now. I'm 66 now and my symptoms started long time ago, I have cousins with fibromyagia and I think my mum had it but didn't realise all them years ago..she finished work young and was always in pain till she passed aged 83. I'm sending you a big hug..from carole.

Get well soon 🙏🏼

My flairs are getting progressivly longer and more painful.
