Answer Hi Dianne,
Sorry to hear you are flaring so long.
Most of the time, it takes many things to take us down into a flare and it take many things to get you out of a flare!
You may need lots of rest, range of motion/stretching/toning exercise, relaxation, meditation, medication, physical therapy, light massage, counseling, stress maintenance etc., etc. etc.! It may take weeks to see the results. The 4 P's are essential ... prioritizing, planning, pacing, and problem solving. Good diet is important. Life style engineering helps.
There's not anyone thing but many, many approaches! For more help try http//www.myalgia.com.
