Just as I thought things where going well, yesterday and today I was in agony. My PsA felt a bit bad a couple of days ago and yesterday whilst working in the garden I suddenly got a huge pain in my left lower back and top of my leg.
I have never experienced anything like it before and it felt like my leg muscles had exploded! couldn't move all day, no sleep even taking loads of pain killers. And this morning had to get Mrs Fred to help me out of bed. No problem there I thought as she has helped me in the past, but as she helped me stand the pain was like someone ripping the nerves from my body.
Anyway went to A&E and explained I had the problem in December where they thought I'd had a kidney stone which had been passed. So more tests, bloods, urine, x-rays, and another scan, and they have said my nerve is trapped in my spine do to my psoriatic arthritis. I've been on a painkiller drip most of the day, and although they wanted to keep me in I'm now back home with loads of painkillers.
Just wondered if anyone else has experienced this?
