Hello,

Thanks for using health care magic for posting your query.

I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.

However I would require a couple of more details to help you in answering your query in a better justified way.

1)Do you have diabetes or any other medical illness
2. Do you have back aches frequently
3. How long are you having these symptoms.

Hope to hear from you at your earliest convenience.

Regards and wish you good health,
