I understand completely what you are going through. I have begun a regimen of microdosing Naltrexone which is a medication that is used to treat opioid addiction in large doses. It was discovered that, when the addicts began to wean themselves off of the drug, at a point where they were down to between 4.5mg and lower to just 2.5mg, their pain was very much improved. What the drug does at that low dose is to help the brain create more natural opioids that most people have to handle pain. After about a year, those natural opioids will become permanent. I have noticed a sharp decrease in the pain. I too have very tight muscles over my whole body which I've had for a long time and the usual physical therapies don't help. About a year ago, I started experiencing the internal tremors which every doctor diagnosed as anxiety. But it is not anxiety. It's that my muscle spasms are so strong, it has affected my nerves which are reacting to the tightness of my muscles. I can't take opioids nor can I take muscle relaxants. When I sit, the tremors are felt in my pelvic area. When I lie down to go to sleep at night, the tremors are unrelenting but there is no pain associated with them. I honestly don't know how to treat the tremors or if I can. If you haven't already, try going to an MD who specializes in homeopathic medicine. My MD is very understanding and was the one who prescribed the Naltrexone. He is also prescribing various supplements that might help with tremors. I hope you can find some relief.

I started taking a muscle relaxant to see if that might help. It made me lethargic yesterday so I cut it in half last night. That seemed OK. I slept better.

I am still in recovery mode after trying to cut some firewood 3 days ago. I had some pressure point massage to get rid of my torticollis followed by hot packs and gentle to moderate massage every day after that. I am still tight and have pain but it is better. I can't live a sedate life so I will try to do a little everyday to see how it goes. It is a struggle.

Everybody is very different chemically. It's hard to find a medication that works for me since I am over sensitive to everything.

This makes life so much more difficult. It's hard to handle lives difficulties while in pain.

How long have you had this condition?
Do you have good support from loved ones.

Please feel free to discuss this with me as much as you like. It may be good to know that you are not the only one.
