I am asking this for my mom who is 56 years old now. She is not able to stand for more than 5 to 10 mins now. She is feeling a pain in her left hip (back side) and also in left high-thigh area. She is feeling pain in the muscles (not bones). But if she is sitting or lying down, she is not feeling any pain. Only when she is standing she is feeling this pain. This actually started 1.5 years back. But these days she is not able to put up with it. She consulted with an neurologist 5 months back. She was prescribed with 1)Pregabalin ER 75 ( 1in every morning) 2) Amigaba (1 in every night) But she took the prescription only for a day as she felt more sleepiness especially after taking Pregabalin ER 75. She needs to do her chores everyday. So she cant take a tablet which would make her sleep in the morning. Please suggest a solution which would make her healthy. Thank You so much!

Take Physiotherapy sessions and learn exercise. Take calcium supplement in morning and methylcobalamine in night. Start with omega3 also.
