Again... the term used for these muscle pains is "chronic". It is a pain that is not aggravated or alleviated by normal range of motion. If the joint hurts due to bubbles, there will be positions that really hurt and those that don't.
But that is only ONE manifestation of DCS. Numbness (like something is "asleep"), a rash, feeling overly drowsy, intense irritability, and in severe cases paralysis and symptoms of stroke can all be attributed to DCS.
But all these symptoms can be attributed to OTHER diseases as well. There is no magical flag that says THIS is some nerve impingement and THIS is DCS. This is why its best to get someone else to evaluate you. You are too close to the situation to make the call. Call DAN. They will systematically run you through a Q&A that will give them (and you) a better idea of what protocol to pursue.
