Hi.. I also have this, the first 3 yrs. I went into deep depression I was only 38. After many doctors I was prescribed Darvocet and Vioxx. There is still pain I have had it for 11 yrs. now But I found out the more I try to stay a little active the better off I am. Don't let this rule your life. Keep moving because the more you sit around the worse you will feel.After a while you kind of get use to it and know your limits.Mine started in my back and shoulder and Heating pads worked wonders. Can't start the day out without a Hot Shower.it kind of loosens everything up.Keep in touch and I will be happy to answer any questions. Debbie
