AAHHH

well just gave in and took 2 endone, the pain is Gripping and cramping around my ribs and left arm shoulder hurting fingers intermitent tingling, only relief i get is short term with ice pack or bending backwards, this is one of the Worst yet and i feel i am loosing it just cant think straight

Hi Vannie yes it's oxycodine , it is T6/7 about mid way , the last one i did was L4/5 that is the area i usually do, But this one is So much more painfull i havn't had them go very often up higher. your right lying Flat seems ok but sitting eeerrr

its about 3hrs since i took the 2 endone (oxycodine) and it is just taking the edge off where by i don't feel so frazzled still hurts but a little less i think if it dosn't get a bit better in next few days i'll have to go to the hospital - and i Never do that! But it is driving me crazy even wondered if i had a broken rib or fracture to the spine its that sore the mussle from spine around ribs is Grabbing 

Ouch! I'd get to the doctor ASAP.
My L5-S1 is bone on bone and I know your pain.

oh Vannie didn't tell you did i about the Mussle relaxent the Dr recomended i get something called norflex or something like that, well Hubby went to chemist but was told you need a prescription for it and then that it is not listed on the PBS thats a government subsidy scheam Most drugs come under so it would cost $500.00 so we decided i really didn't need it that much,

 and i cant take Anti inflamitories i rang the Dr back and left message to see if there's something else i can take but so far i haven't heard back.

 today i Took more endone instead of trying to streach it out i took 2 in morning then another 2 around lunch time and while it is Still Killing it is not at that going crazy stage

so i will try that for a day or 2 and see if the mussle can relax a bit,

because as usual when i need to go to hospital it is a Long weekend Holliday here so there will be less staff and i'll have to wait Hours i'd rather stay in a Ball on couch at home,

i'm going to have a hot Bath soon as i think the pain killers are wearing off.

You poor thing! This is not fair at all! Hope you get some relief soon! Enough is enough!

How are you today, Bad? If you are not a lot better, you need to call the doc or go to the hospital, sweetie.

Please let me know how it goes. Praying for you, sweetie.

How are you doing, Bad?

You are not stupid, Bad Day. Your soul needed that ride and visit. Just take care of yourself and know I am praying for you, sweetie. And keep this doctor's appointment! ; )

Thanks guys, i have been resting not much else i can  do right now, i haven't gone to Hospital i'm trying to avoid it and hoping it will get better but so far not.

i can sit up for about 3 minutes befor back starts to HURT, if i lay flat it is almost pain free (almost cos i get the interminted Ping of pain)

 then if i walk (which is hard at best of times) it is ok But i Can't stand still,and can't sit.

i think i told you about the new car we brought well we had to go to the Motor registery to transfer it into our name as we hadn't done it yet and you only have a limited time to transfer it out of old owners name, it was going in my name and today was the deadline(or its a big fine) so i had to go.

Well i got up at 10am and promptly went back to bed then again at 11,12,1 eventually at 2.30 that was it i had to do it hubby helped me hobble with walker frame to car (it was only a few minutes down street)

sat in car and eeee started to cramp and like a knife being pushed between my spine,

we got to RTA (motor register) hubby went inside and got form so i didnt have to stand and fill it in,

then we went in and i sat waiting every minute was agony, but got it done then back in car and home i was litterally pulling my cloths off as i walked thru door and got in a Hot Bath to soak after laying in bath for only a short time i was fine,

but then back to bed.

oh a funny thing happened i'm sure you all Hate we have a friendly nosey neighbour she's nice but knows Everything going on in the neighbourhood, well she saw me hobbling to the car and called out "oh how are you going any better by now?" so i said yes i'm fine- to which she replied " you've been unwell for a while you must be tired of it hope your better soon"

 Now While this was ment to be nice all i wanted to Scream back was NO i'm Not Better and No i won't be getting Better.

Why do they do that really ? is it just to make them feel better? or they just don't know what else to say?
