A good and frustrating weekend!! Last weekend, I rode the recumbent bike for 12 min, resistance of 4. I felt great....until 2 days later when my glutes/IT band/muscles around my Ischial tuberosity decided to basically spasm. Everything is so tight that my rear feels muscular, as if I have lifted heavy weights for years!! If only. Instead, my SI joints and lumbar spine are affected - sitting, walking, standing, lying down...stretching, heat, cold packs, soft tissue, meds....sometimes brief relief. The last time I rode the bike, the result was a 2 month flare!! UGH!!!. When I was growing up, we went to Myrtle Beach every summer!! To your question re moving: we are hoping to move to the SC upstate or to southern NC. How is your world? What do you to do treat muscle spasm and stiffness which comes on after 10 min of sitting?

Hi! Iām Penny from Abilene, Texas. Last year I did 23&Me ancestry testing, it appears most of my forebears came from Ireland and particularly County Cork! Would love to go there some day, if I can ever get this pain and fatigue under control! Hope all is well there and with you.

Hi Penny! So glad you are here with us in the community. I hope you are well and controlling the pain and fatigue a little better these days. What are some of your current therapies and treatments that help? Rebecca (community moderator)
