For the past 5 days, I have had severe hip joint pain and searing pain in both ankles. I have a huge red blotch on my hip, and I can no longer fit my feet into my Birkenstocks comfortably.
I took my 7th Enbrel injection this morning.
I also took an extra meloxicam and 2 Alieve.
The pain ans swelling are almost unbearable, and my toes are numb.
Alieve does not relieve arthritis pain.
I will say that my chronic pain is gone. Those achy knees and my throbbing knuckle along with my ever painful wrist is non existent now. It's just this massive flare-up. Phil and I wanted to go to Six Flags tomorrow, but I'm pretty sure that won't happen. :(
Trust me. It hurts as bad as it looks.
