    The pain in my ankles is starting to return. My ankles and legs appear to be burning with a dull stabbing pain {pain> 5 to 7} radiating up towards my knee. I notice today {0313-13} while standing waiting in line at the grocery store the pain became worse. My doctor {a Neurologist} has increased my medication of Gabapentin 600mg 3T a day which I believe, makes me dizzy. We keep masking the pain, which I'm thankful for that however my fear is how far will we have to go? What if I can't get a drug to mask the pain? Why can't I find a cure?
    I had Sarcoidosis and use the drug Prednisone. Is there a Medical Facility that's more aware of this condition?
    On 0314-14 0630 a.m. I notice I had no pain after being up for about an hour the pain started and is about a two, ten being the greatest.

    Also I informed my Primary doctor on the importance of me having a Disability Placard for when days are bad, she stated that she only would be in agreement if I had lost a limb, do U agree and if so, why?
    When the pain is bad, like today, I wanna get in and get out.
