Hi
I live in Canada and am a nurse. Howevr I worked with the aged and
didn't really come across this much. I am self diagnosing right now,
but I have burning buttocks that cause me a great deal of pain. My
low back is always good for pain too :)
I have many other symptoms, but just wanted to say Hi for now.
thanks
Aimee
