Posted by Narsi My mom suffers from chronic leg pain, and we have seen any number of doctors... I have been doing (amateur) research on various types of leg pain and have put up a page with resources and links for the same - http://www.billdoll.com/dir/health/q/leg_pain.html Check out if that page is of use to you - it has been put up for those suffering from chronic leg pain, but I have provided related resources as well Hope this helps NS Link: Treatments for Severe, Chronic Leg Pain

Hi,

: Hi there,
: I have hip pain too and I also do
: not have EDS but my son (now an
: adult) does.
: I have been through the hip xrays
: and tests too and been told there's
: nothing they can find wrong. You
: say you have had a fusion because of
: 2 discs disintegrating. Just
: thought I'd share with you what I
: have learned. I also have disc
: degeneration and it finally took a
: good chiropractor to tell me that
: this disc problem is what is causing
: all the pain to radiate through my
: hip and right down the sciatic nerve
: in my right leg, very painful. He
: told me that because of all this, I
: have a foot problem and need to wear
: special supports in my shoes. Well,
: I hurried and got some (mine are
: called "happy feet" but
: there are many brands) they are
: customized for your feet, they are
: insoles. You just pull out the
: insole in you favorite shoes and put
: these in instead. The difference in
: my hip/lower back pain was instant
: improvement. I still have pain, but
: this definitely helps to keep it
: more tolerable. I wear a pair in
: the house all day and have another
: pain to wear out. Just thought I'd
: share this.

: Hello everyone! I have considerable
: hip pain. My sister Liza has EDS. I
: am going to a general physician and
: he is listening to me but is unsure
: of EDS diagnosis. I have had hip
: xrays, eye exam and echocardiogram,
: all was normal. I also had the disc
: between c5 and c6 disinergrate for
: no known reason and spinal fusion
: done for that. I do notice that each
: time I lose weight (25 more pounds
: to go) I get more hip pain. I am
: close to "losing it" due
: to the pain. nothing seems to help.
: How can I help my doctor figure out
: what is going on and help him to
: help me. My sisiter is not doing to
: good and I hope to find things out
: before I reach her stage (god bless
: her for all her help and guidance
: but we are two states away from each
: other). Ant suggestions or anyone in
: the Portland Oregon area that has a
: good doctor or has EDS that may be
: able to help? Thank you and God
: bless! Leslie
