First consultation with neurologist

I have a suggestion...As you know muscles and nerves are connected... I have all those pain areas and have gone to about 30 doctors in the last ten years and nothing but pain meds have been given me.. I am finding some relief now by a physical therapist who uses Dry Needling..(Look it up) he inserts needles into each group of muscles (one day for each area).. then once he locates the offending muscle (pain causing, knotted muscle), the next treatment he uses a TENS unit to give that muscle a little massage, loosening it up. With a few days, the pain is less in the spot. After it is painfree, he plans to teach me how to keep the muscles relaxed. Not acupuncture, not chiropractic, which only minimally comfort the muscles, but this targets the muscles deeply. Hope you check it out.

Thanks Mary. I have to admit that after doing a lot of Internet searches, I have not found much that is encouraging for this kind of problem. Still, one has to start somewhere!
