Hello SeetPea24, I can not think of too many things more painful than not having the interaction you want with your kids and family. There are a number of very successful actions you could take to help ease or possible eliminate the pain. Although, it is very likely you will need some Lifestyle changes, I suggest first helping to put out the fire and ease your pain and stress. Initially I suggest a medical food known as UltraInflamX 360 2-3 srgs. Per day, 6-8 grams of EPA-DHA and a product called FibroPlex Plus two servings a day, along with 4 tablets of Kaprex. If you were under my care I would monitor daily for the first week to confirm the protocol but this is a great initial program and can be modified as your body heals. Please also read closely the insert that came with the medication if you choose to continue it. This should get you off to a good start, and most feel better pretty quick.
