    I have trouble lifting things over 10 lb. Walking makes my legs go numb. I have a place on my back between my shoulder blade and my spine that is in constant pain no matter what I'm doing. Sometimes it's so bad that it goes all the way through to my chest.

    When it flares up, I hurt so bad it hurts just to have my clothes touch it. Even though it hurts getting up and moving some does help ease it a little bit. The cold weather affects it and also when the weather is getting ready to change.
