It is Western medicine - German, no less. Predates Bayer by about 60 years.

Another voice chiming in for homeopathy . . . my family has had great success with it.

I want to add one more mainstream pain med idea that might be helpful too -- I have used baclofen for years for spasticity but also for deep aching bone pain in my legs, etc. -- what I think of toothaches in my legs and pelvis -- and it makes such a difference. Especially since he's been so active this might be something to consider.

You could also try deep massage or acupressure, if he could stand the touch. (Sometimes for me it feels wonderful and sometimes I can't stand sensations.)

Kacey, I have been following your saga and cheering for all of you! :-)

Odd. Double post - disseminated in time and space...

kacey and everyone,

The truth is I am not the kind of person who would ever speak my mind to a doctor. But since this was a venting post, I vented my true feelings. Venting does help!

So Johnson, have no worries -- I'm a very sweet person (honestly!), BUT I do have diagnosed MS/CCSVI, and I'm pretty sure I've been declared mentally unfit somewhere along the way by my psychiatrists ;)

kacey, you know I'm thinking of you and Michael, and remember... you can call anytime, day or night.
