@dunkinmacdougall Hi, I see many questions in these forums that ask others if they think or have experienced issue from certain medications. It's a valid question. First if you read or research the list of side effects that come with theses meds, and combine that with the problems you are having with legs, feet, or wha have you, your answer is there. Looking for drugs alone to remove a problem alone long term is likely not going to solve a problem. Therapy and exercise, along with diet and daily care is going to help. The real question is does what you are taking in combination causing you the pain? Meaning you may have answered your own question to the affirmative just by asking. Real question which one in the combo is the culprit?

Thanks for the follow up to my question.
I have investigated the meds I am on and if there are contraindicators with my pharmacist. So far we are not having any conflicting meds. I do have a "yoga" routine that I use every morning and on the most uncomfortable nights also. The routine requires up to 45 minutes. There is also 20 to 45 minutes on a stationary bicycle and on some occasions, use of an inversion table. There are Osteopath, massage therapist and a physio therapist that offers the decompression table in my routine. I have recently visited a physiatrist and she relayed that I have a triple whammy. Arthritis, stenosis and neuropathy. Not much left for me to do but "suck it up buttercup"
