In January 2009, I had such severe pain in my sacroiliac joints (two joints on each side of the spine located in the lower back/upper buttocks), that I literally could not get out of bed for a day. I was diagnosed with sacroilitis.
Since then I continue to have pain in the sacroiliac joints, but I have pain in other areas of my hips as well.
I think I have a high tolerance for pain after enduring years of migraines, but at times the pain is excruciating. I do take naproxen twice daily and ibuprofen as needed but was told at my latest appointment with my primary that I should not be taking both.
Even with those medications, I'm still in pain.
Does anyone else experience this? And do you have any thoughts on whether this is part of MS or something else? I'm not asking for a medical diagnosis--just to learn from your personal experience. Thank you so much!
