Aches

I remember reading a post a few weeks back when people were complaint they were waking up with achy bodies. Did anyone have a solution? Every morning for about a week I have woken up with a raging headache, a stiff left thumb and sore right wrist. The headache usually goes away within a few hours but my hands remain sore throughout the day. Advil helps but I hate to take it constantly. I thought it maybe dehydration so I drank extra water yesterday including 24 ounces throughout the night and I still feel the same. Any input s welcome. Thx

    Somebody wrote about "mommy thumb" and I think that is part of my problem. It doesn't explain my knee pain though.
    I haven't had headaches, but I go to the chiropractor regularly and that really helps!

    Body aches to the max, but I don't know if that is just because I'm old and fat, or if it is a post-partum thing.  No headaches (for a change -- normally I'm prone to them), but my feet / ankles / hips are SO stiff in the morning and after sitting a lot of the day at work.  I'm dying to go swim laps because I feel like it will help stretch things out!

    I'm still dealing. I checked out the joint supplements at the store the other day,but of course you can't take them if you're nursing. My sister recommended MSM; she has arthritis and fibromyalgia, and she was able to replace her celebrex with it. If you aren't nursing, I'd check it out.

    My back and neck have been really achy for the last few weeks.

    I have "mommy thumb" (De Quervians) and finally had my steroid shot for it last week, so at least that doesn't hurt right now.

    I have the stiff and sore hands/wrists, feet,ankles and knees. I went to the doctor and she ordered labs and X-rays and suggested a glucosamine juice which I haven't bothered with yet. I guess I will wait for the lab results and keep working on losing more weight. I have found that I'm ok as long as I'm moving but if I sit still for more than a few minutes, I'm miserable. Could be RA, could be weight, could be hormones still settling down. Whatever it is, I hope it gets figured out soon.

    Not sure if this fits or not but I've been waking up with headaches due to clenching my jaw all night. Not sure why. I am a sometimes teeth grinder/clencher but its even worse since having DD. Also every single time I get out of bed my ankles are stiff and crack while I walk.
