Help! For the last week my back hurts really bad at night. It starts around 11 pm after I get settled down and gets worse up until I findly go to sleep,,but with alot of help per pain meds and muscle relaxers. In the morning it eases off as I move around some. The pain is in the mid-section of my back going straight across. Could it be my kidneys? I will tell you my ailments and what treatments I am doing. I have systemic lupus, fibromalgia and all the problems that come with both. For about the last month I have been drinking a glass of filtered water with a pich of borax, 1 teas. of baking soda, 30 drops of hydrogen peroxide 3%, and a capful of ACV. I had been using regular ACV but the last 4 days I have used raw vinegar with the mother in it. I am taking d-3 2000 iu, b-12 bilingual, potassium, magnesium 250 and calcium 600. I am still taking some rx meds which include ultram and zanaflex. I stopped taking nexium and prozac without any problems. What would cause my back to hurt only at night? I thought I was going to have to go to the ER a couple times it was so bad. Nothing helps or aggravates the pain, like walking sitting, laying. I sit with a heating pad last night with no help.

The baking soda trick does work for me most of the time - but some days the pain does creep back. I find driving quite painful if I'm driving on a bumpy road - I try and drive as slowly as possible without annoying other drivers but it's not always possible. Does anyone else get this? I have ordered some cayenne and ginger capsules and I'm looking forward to trying those. The trouble with this condition, for me, is that every day is different. One day I can feel really fine - 9 out of 10 and the next day I'm back to 3 out of 10. Sometimes it's not obvious to me what I've done to make things worse. It makes it hard for my family because they never know what sort of mood I'll be in when they get home! I try and stay positive but it's sometimes really hard to snap out of a "feeling sorry for myself" mood. Please keep all the advice coming - it is such a help and I hope that one day I'll be able to offer some helpful advice myself!" http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/pain.html&name=COCONUTOIL_32114 /CURES/pain.rss3 Sun, 13 Sep 2009 00:00:00 EDT [YEA] Gramma from Raymond, Alberta, Canada writes: "My husband and I use coconut oil as a rub for aches and pains. Hubby had his right shoulder replaced 10 years ago and coconut oil keeps him pain free. I need back surgery but am too old so I use coconut oil to relieve pain. We also use it to rub arthritic knees, hips, elbows and hands. We were in Majuro for 18 months five years ago and were introduced to coconut oil by the natives when I stepped onto a red ant pile and was severely bitten all over my legs. Instant relief from coconut oil. We don't measure, we just scoop out a little and rub it on.

The day after that I was in severe pain, (I could not walk) but only in the right side of my body. My muscles are in constant spasm from my neck, shoulder, upper arm, ribs, back muscle, my hip, buttock, knee and lower leg. No pain medication seems to work. Some days it feels if there is bubbles under my skin and also sharp pains in head and shoulder. I also suffer from severe IBS and insomnia. The docters here diagnosed me with fibromyalgia and I am tested positive for the Epstein barr virus. No medications seems to work. I came across earth clinic's site and started with the apple cider, baking soda and borax mixture and although it is only 4 day now, the pain is a bit better.The only side effect that I noticed is puffy eyes. Otherwise I am in good health. I would like to find out if there is anything that you can recommend.

I had burning pain in the front thigh and down the shin. I also could not lift my knee more than a couple of inches, nor could I get up from a crouch. It was like the muscle in the front of my thigh had locked up and stopped working. Six months ago, after a sudden cramping in my right groin, my right leg started doing the same thing. Chiropractic and acupuncture relieve the pain for a few days but it doesn't fix anything. I have seen osteopaths and neurologists. I have had x-rays, a CT scan, an MRI and a few other tests. They found a long-standing spondylolysthesis that I know happened in a boating accident 25 years ago. While this explains a few of the issues, it doesn't explain them all - and nobody can tell me how to fix anything. I have been told that "sometimes we just have to live with things and there are no answers" - not acceptable in my book. The best they can come up with is naproxin (anti-inflammatory) and morphine for the pain so I can sleep. Still, a "good" night sleep is 3-4 hours at most and I can't put on shoes or socks without help (Thank God for my husband), nor can I use stairs without something to hold on to. After the latest waiting list (4 months)a specialist told my there is no hernia involved. Now I am on a 6 month list to see a spinal specialist but I was also told I should have another MRI as well (11 month waiting list). Please, any suggestions would be gratefully accepted." http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/pain.html&name=ACV_23045 /CURES/pain.rss10 Mon, 23 Feb 2009 00:00:00 EST [YEA] Margaret Taylor from Stockport, England writes: "hello just like to say i have been taking acv for five days now and feel great, no aches & pains at all, i have a bad hip, just wanted to know if it would cure sore throats as my son suffers a lot from them, he gets them a lot, he gets so fed up with them,.... i have started taking acv in 8 ozs of water & honey, i find i am sleeping better too" http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/pain.html&name=ACV_21196 /CURES/pain.rss11 Thu, 15 Jan 2009 11:04:26 EST [YEA] Judy from Hubert, North Carolina writes: "As everyone should be I was very skeptical when I read of all the cures acheived with ACV.

Well let me just say that I feel like a brand new woman! I have had sever back pain and degenerative disease since I was 11 yrs old. About 6 yrs ago I was in an auto accident that I have had constant neck pain from. More recently, with my age now being 48, I have had knee and hip pain on my right side. After taking ACV in water, 2 tbls in 8 oz, for three days my hip no longer hurt! I decided to follow the recipe better and slowly drink 3 to 4 glasses of the same recipe all day. While at the gym I realized I could move my neck and look over my shoulder with no pain!! When I get up in the morning I no longer have to hang on to the counter when I kneel down to get something from the bottom of the cupboard!! I wake up everyday now PAIN FREE! I can't wait to see what happens next! As for my man, well he see's what it is doing for me and wants to do it too but hates the taste and doesn't have the patients. I have been doing all I can to get him to do it. He will now and again but won't do it every day. Does anyone have any ideas how to make it taste better for him?

I am 58 and have been in good shape most of my life but had a low back injury over 3 years ago and have had severe pain and stiffness which has sent me to doctors, chiropractors, physical therapists, massage therapists and even a rolfer for 15 sessions! All of these helped but very temporarily. I have also been doing yoga and exercises from a book called Relaxercise (excellent by the way) which have also helped but only somewhat. I had been getting worse within the past few months and had develped knee, foot and hand pain along with swelling of these areas especially one ankle and foot which was twice the normal size. It hurt to walk or wear any type of shoe. My husband is an RN who looked at my swollen ankle and foot and told me it almost looked like gouty arthritis. This comment prompted me to research the subject and I found a blog of 100's of people all of who had been using ACV and all but 1 person rated the treatment 5 stars. I immediately went to a health food store and bought the organic, unfiltered ACV and started by taking 3 tablespoons in a large glass of water sweetened with organic raw honey. Following the first dose the night before, I woke to find the swelling reduced to about 1/4 of what it had been and the pain nearly gone. The stuff works like a miracle! I have continued to take it every day but have cut down the dose to 2 tablespoons 2-3 times per day in the same amount of water with honey. I have only a twinge of pain and 1 spot of swelling about the size of a quarter remaining on my ankle. Amazingly, my low back has less pain and more mobility than what I have ever had since the injury over 3 years ago. All this and I have only discovered this treatment less than 1 week ago!

Now, what shall get rid of the pain in my hand and finger joints? I am awake tonight because of the intense pains in them, so I am on the internet here reading more about ACV and honey to relieve this, I had a good friend tell me about it years ago, before I needed to use it. Good skin and no pain in the old guys I worked with who all tried it one month on a dare...me being young, stored the info away in my brain....for the future.

What has helped make it bearable for me is massage and acupuncture. I also use Traumeel cream on the elbow and Traumeel tablets dissolved in mouth 3x daily for relief of pain and inflammation. If the pain is bad and elbow is very inflamed, such as after alot of use, try icing for 10mins or an ice massage (rub an ice cube over affected area for 3-5mins should feel cold,then burny, then achy, then numb be sure to stop when it starts feeling numb).

Having recently torn the cartilage in my left knee, simultaneously diagnosed "with a little arthritis" in the same, and swelling behind the knee. My Sport's Ortho said that the swelling was common with the torn cartilage but should go down in time. I began searching on the Web for a magical pain relief remedy (other than my already supplementation of Glucosamine Sulfate, Chondrotin, Taurine, Collagen, HA, Cats Claw, Bromelain, MSM, etc., etc., etc - .all of which I have been taking for years due to 27 yrs of cycling but at almost 68yo, something had to give). One subject that kept surfacing on the Searches was an old time remedy of Castor Oil. I'm not in terrible pain, but it is a 24/7 aggravation, as anyone who has similar discomforts can attest to. I decided to give it a try; purchased a package of ladies' cosmetic, cleansing pads (~3"x4") and a small bottle of Castor Oil (CO), I placed a pad on a saucer, saturated the pad with CO (not dripping) and popped it into the microwave for about 35 secs. I, then placed the (105F) warm pad on my knee; wrapped my knee-pad with plastic wrap (to keep the CO from staining the heating pad) and then applied a heating pad, set to Med. heat. I left it on for about 1 hour and when I removed everything, I did a "test walk" -not only was my knee not stiff, and the swelling was 95% GONE!! I could walk with 100% less discomfort and this was 10x more effective than the Cortisone or three Hydraluronic Acid injections I had received in a two months period. The other nice thing, is that you don't have to throw the saturated pad away; place in a Ziploc bag for the next application and just add a little more CO. I generally apply this treatment daily, each time the knee feels better - I know it's not going to remedy the situation 100%, but has made my life much better.. http://www.diagnose-me.com/treat/T350155.html http://www.edgarcayce.org/th/tharchiv/therapies/castor1.html "
