Had Hip Replacement Previously. Having Pain In Lower Spine While Walking, Standing. On Painkillers. Solution?

I started Depo Provera when it was a clinical study in the US. I was on it for twenty years and stopped when I began menopause. I've already gone through one hip replacement, and need the other done. My lower spine is what hurts if I stand or walk over 10 minutes at a time. I've tried taking Vitamin D & calcium supplements, but get extreme muscle cramps that even wake me up at night. The only thing I take for pain relief is 2 Aleve a day. What else can I do?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
You can add the muscle relaxant along with the present line of treatment, if you have taken hormone for any purpose for longer than enough time then this might causes disturbances in every system of body including nerve conduction system which is highly related with pain sensation, another agents remains is opioid you can try this, have nice day.
