Bless you 53julie. It is very very painful and I can't imagine having it that long.

Has your doctor tried a prednisone taper to break the inflammation cycle? Can you take Advil or Motrin? There is a prescription anti inflammatory medication that is not as hard on the stomach called Mobic....has that been recommended?

Have you been to a cardiologist to make sure it is not your heart since it has lasted so long?

I am praying for you to get some relief.
