The burning is something that I have experienced a lot in my back.  It was almost as bad as my bladder in terms of keeping me up and very uncomfortable.  This has impoved quite a lot.  I also had a very stiff neck which still comes and goes but has improved.  In the last few weeks I have had a little set back and my neck became very stiff again.  I notice as I am improving again the neck is also better.  I still get a fair amount of burning in the left side near the breast area and especially when I am having difficulties it picks up.  i can relate to the feeling 90 years old because bfore the bladder acted up I could fel my body getting sick and feeling old.  I would think if I feel this in my forties there is no way I want to be older and feeling worse than I already do.  I certainly don't feel 90 anymore and feel that there is hope to feel my age or even better younger.

I get this mostly in the arches of my feet. IF I get it in my back that means i am doing really bad but sometimes I will. Recently I have had a burning pain on my skin it comes in waves it's mostly on my thys. My joints ache and burn sometimes they mostly ache more then burn though. Right now my right hip is burning. I get this pulsing stinging feeling too. I try to just breathe when it happens write it down and then I get a steamed towel and press it on the area several times that day. It seems to help me some.

hey torey - when I first started with Matia, I had a terrible problem with inflammation and burning pain in my hips and my mid back. it was so bad that I was putting ice packs on my hips just trying to calm down the feeling of fire. Forturnately, these severe symtoms did not last very long and now when I have joint pain it is very mild. You'll get through it - hang in there!Carol

Holy smoke... I feel like someone kicked my hips in sometimes... Usually happens around ovulation and period.  It hurs so bad.... Also, there are tender points along my spine... You are in good company in this department!  I try and exercise as much as I can... I think that it is toxins that get trapped in these points... Oh... also, the insides of my knees get sore too.  Like i fell on concrete with them... It sucks so bad.  Dang fibro... Ha.  No wonder my 9 other doctors thought I was nuts... What the heck does the knees and hips have to do with your bladder... Well.. apparently  A LOT!  Thank you very much... We are all normal and on our way to getting better!  This is just part of the process. NO pain NO gain!

In the spectrum of all my werid IC urinary symptoms I have felt burning in my lower back and in my kidney area- straight up throbbing pain there. If it happens now it is a fleeting symptom and very mild  so its gotten better. However sort of recently I have gotten the neck soreness- upper trapezius area and the knees being sore. and it is all out of blue! I totally felt like I was 80 years old when I started treatment but I can say now that while I am weaker than most healthy people I do feel a peculiar vitality-(lifeforce) in my body that I have not felt in a long long time. I have more energy although I am not at 100% by any means I do think it is better. I feel lighter?  In the beginning of treatment I felt like I had been hit by a truck- everything hurt and I was very heavy limbed. I get numbess in my pelvic area still. sometimes I feel a werid urge to move my legs around- maybe I have restless legs symdrome? I feel like I could be doing more exercise to help all of this- increase energy and reduce the toxicity that accumulates in places like knees and elbows. I am so amazed at how much sytemic yeast/toxcity can have this incredible long diverse list of symtoms!Mary 

I too have had burning all over my body.  In my left breast, upper chest area of left shoulder, feet, legs, right thigh, lower stomach area, right hip region, back, arms, face, jaw, right ear and top of my head. It moves all over.  The burning is worst when I am still, sitting or laying down.  I have had this for over 3 years (burning all over).  It first started maybe eight years ago with just burning in my feet.
Since starting treatment 10 months ago with Matia I am improving and doing much better with less burning.  And I feel good most days with much more energy.  I am senting you well wishes!  I know how hard it is and my thoughts are with you....

Hi torey, I'm also having a lot of pain, especially at the right side of my body, did you also have that kind of pain before treatment?  I had groin and leg pain before but it often feels worse since I started treatment.To me it feels like it's all inflamed, do you also have a stitching burning feeling?And I'm soooo tired, especially after I have taken my herbs.vicky

hi torey,I think it's nerve pain, for me it's probably nerve pain because I had my appendix removed about 1.5 years ago and the pain mostly radiates from that area into my groin and leg,that pain is also stronger since I started taking the herbs and is more painful than the bladder/urethra problemsvicky
