I have really bad arthritis, all over my body. I've taken all kinds of pain killers, but the only things that really work are the opiates (darvocet, percocet, etc). What do you do when you're in pain?

Painkillers are usually the way for severe pain. But you can also try body massages. There are all sorts of herbal massages using essential oils which are supposed to help. You can try taking an omega 3 supplement as lots of studies have shown they have benefits in arthritis and they may reduce your intake of painkillers too. wear good shoes that support your ankles and legs. My mom who has arthritis does these things and has found some relief from the pain.
