Likelihood that the pain will progress or stop?

Hi heisenberg34
I cannot imagine how devastating it is to live with such daily pain. Is it in your skin, joints, bone or muscle?
I’ve had 50 years of low level pain following a car accident. Joint pain has increased as I’ve aged. I was told to expect and accept arthritis in damaged joints as a part of life. With most of this acceleration happening since I have been taking B6 I am wondering if this will decrease as I detox.
I have back and neck pain, knee and ankle pain - all exacerbated by activity. I have a headache regardless of activity. At night my legs will have a crawling sensation before going rigid - now that pain is like knife and gets me up real quick! Water and magnesium and Voltaren gel are the things I use to stop that. I only use the gel if I haven’t got the other 2 right and need a quick fix. This tells me that there is inflammation involved. After taking such a small dose of vit B6 and getting such high toxicity I am reticent to take anything in large doses. I try to balance every day - I am literally taking every day as a new day, based on what I noticed the day before.
I am working with my general practitioner and having monthly blood tests.
Checking that B6 toxicity is going down and monitoring B12 and D3 as well as inflammation.
I wish I could be more help. Have you tried anti inflammatory medication?
Keep hydrated.
Is it too painful to get massaged?

Hey @lorry, thanks for your reply. I don't even know where to begin. I only had lower back and buttock pain from a ski fall when we moved to Delaware back in 2023. My last surgery was to have a pain pump with hydromorphone implanted in April of 2023. The trial was great, but the permanent implant has never helped one bit. Had it adjusted up, down, all around to no avail. I am having it adjusted down so I can have it taken out.
About five months ago, I started getting extreme pain in the back of my legs and in my feet. Pain docs here in Delaware seem totally befuddled and not willing to look deeper. I will be going for Scrambler therapy at the end of the month. I have very cautious optimism because nothing has helped so far. I just mad a list of my symptoms. Too many to even enumerate here. Looking at them, one would think I was a hypochondriac. Good luck on your journey.
Yes, many anti-inflammatories.
