Yes, this has been my #1 symptom ever since quitting 3 years ago.  Muscle tension and pain in my abdomen/back/torso/buttocks has been off the charts recently.

On good days it is very uncomfortable to stand or sit.  On bad days (like this past 7 weeks) it is extremely painful to stand or sit.

Hope we all recover soon.

Sorry . This is so painful. 
I feel like I turn into stone . I am even worse off than accute lately. 
i don’t know how much longer I can do this. I see so many people having these sxs in windows and waves and seeing healing over the months. I also was CT ied March 2022 but reinstated, I think my reinstatement made my muscle issues even worse but my akathasia was so bad a reinstatement was necessary to stay alive

Are you also bedridden?

No, not bed ridden.  Never have been.  Force myself to get up and do at least 1 walk/day.  Most days it is very uncomfortable to walk but I make myself get up and move.  Lying in bed is actually very uncomfortable - usually just getting up out of bed helps considerably.
