Im not sure if this helps but I had a stroke last year. In March I started having pains in my joints. I went to doctor. Told him the problem. He asked me to tell him every thing I'm taking. When I eventually said one fish oil pills. He said." No no no. You should have been taking 3". After I got home I took 3 and have been taking 3 fish oil pills a day. No more pains in joints.

It is obvious from the post that either these HIV meds or HIV itself cause pain in feet and legs. I just started having them after 25 years of drugs. I thought it might just be my age of 61, but after reading hundreds of post here I'm convinced it is the drugs. Some nights in bed it is so bad I have to drug myself to unconsciousness with lyrica and benzos. Please hurry up with a cure or something besides these biotoxic drugs. I believe you're allowed to miss meds once or twice every few months or at least I do and have kept a no viral load fo years.

Pain is personal and relative. It helps to understand what it is that is not working. I find that just relaxing and taking it easy does not make the pain go away. Staying active is important for the healing process. Lol

Using fish oil, 3 a day a d its working

I think that we are all experiencing some joint pains. It's hard to say what it's attributed to, the meds or weigh gain or arthritis. Some non HIV people that I work with have fibromyalgia and they ate always in pain
