Hip, knee, leg pain

Today after eating Bush's Grillin' Beans with a few pieces of hot dog in it as well as some sweet iced tea to drink, I was hit by painful indigestion and gas. So bad that I couldn't even zip up my jeans or stand up straight for awhile. I had also taken a Tramadol before the indigestion hit, as I could feel my general achiness picking up and I wanted to head it off. I had been medication free until that time, about 4:30 p.m.

I went to my bed with pillows to raise up my chest. Then my legs started hurting. Oh they hurt SO bad today. My knees had a real surge in pain...they burned and felt swollen. I wouldn't even want to try to stand up. Then the pain reached a peak and quickly dropped off.

Then later this evening it surged again, but more in the hips...the bursitis feeling. Got so bad I was in tears. It still hurts but I am going to be okay.

What happened today: I got oil change for car and had them replace a turn signal bulb. Car battery went bad and I had to replace it at Auto-Zone. All together, I spent approx $150 today. I only expected to spend about $30-$40. We are short on money with a lot of major bill's looming. My stress level has been higher but I am just doing what I can. My daughter and I went to lunch and did a quick shop at CVS. I cooked the easy dinner. No reason for me to hurt so bad.
