My Name Is Kim And I Am A Diabetic With

My name is Kim and I am a diabetic with neuropathy, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, metabolic syndrome, sleep apnea, hypothyroidism, arthritis, depression, possible polycystic ovary disease, restless leg syndrome, insomnia, mild asthma, mild copd, possible slow stomach emptying, GURD, etc. I am on insulin and Invokana for the diabetes, methadone for pain, amphetamine to stay awake during the day, baclofen for the restless leg and muscle twitching, methocarbamol, Lyrica, Propranolol for migraines, Simvastatin, Meloxicam, Spironolactone, Cetirizine for nasal issues, Omeprazole for GURD, Pro Air HFA, Lidoderm patches, asprin, vitamins and suppliments, I have worked hard to get healthier and have lost 101 lbs over the years and brought my A1C down from 7.9 to 6.0. My blood pressure is good unless I am stressed, and I have been able to go off of all the psych meds that I was on (there were a lot), I no longer take Tylenol, or some of the other meds I was taking. I am now in the process of weaning off of the methadone and I am almost done but I have started having this achy ichy feeling in my muscles that won't go away. It feels like if I stretch or walk it will get better but when I do, it doesn't. It is so uncomfortable it is almost painful though a different kind than I have had. It kind of reminds me of a milder case of the pain that built up in my whole body and got so bad I had to go on the methadone. I hope it's not that but that is what I fear. I was hoping that if I weaned myself (with my doctor's ok and help) off of the methadone now that I am much healthier than I was, that the pain would not come back. My doctor didn't know what it was but said to call if it didn't go away or got worse. You probably don't have a clue either but I thought I would ask. I am used to doctors not knowing enough to help me or not being able to so it won't hurt my feelings if you don't know either but if you have any ideas of things I and my doctor can look into to solve this, I would very much appreciate it. Thank you,
Kim
