thank you Susie...
I'm sure this has been asked before but I can't seem to find it. My prescription refill is coming up and I don't have a lot of money, nor do I have insurance at this moment. Is there a website that...
Thank you Melagain, that truly helps to hear your words. Hugs Jake...
You are not alone. You're with those who truly understand pain and what it does emotionally. To use the word "mild" is so heart breaking. I don't think they understand how much it crushes our self...
Hope you're feeling better today Turtle and prayers that you get some much needed sleep. Jake...
I have been trying not to give up hope but the physical demands of my old job were very high, literally. I don't know if I'll ever be able to climb 200 feet again. Perhaps there is something in the...
I had to see my doctor today to get my SDI extended again. I was a little aggravated because I tried to see him last week but he wasn't there and had another doctor running his practice. She...
Thank you for sharing Dixie. I'm so sorry that you have had to endure through all of that and are still enduring, its very heart-breaking. You must be an incredibly strong person to still be...
I had a discectomy to remove a 5.5 mm disc rupture. The doctor said the surgery was successful but scar tissue grew in its place. I live in the U.S. in California, although I'd prefer to live in a...
Nice to meet you, although I'm sorry about your problems. I am new here as well. This is a wonderful group of people that truly understand pain and can help get you through it. I am a parent as well...
I'm sorry to hear this. I too have had problems with pharmacists. These people have no business working in a field that's suppose to help people. I have made it a personal vendetta to report the...
I am glad to meet you. It is great to have other people to be able to talk to. I am new here as well so I'm sure you have as many questions as I do. I think we are all going to have great experiences...
Thank you Dixie, I'm so sorry you're having such problems with your PM. I don't go to a pm I've been seeing by primary care since the beginning. It has been a real blessing to have him and he truly...
From what I understand, everyone's system is different, especially if they have an altered stomach. I have been put on several different types of meds; hydrocodone, oxycodone, morph sulfate,...
Thank you all for the encouragement. The support is heart warming. I will try to compile a list soon of my different med trials. I enjoy having people to talk to perhaps I'll have more time tonight...
Thank you for the support. I have a torn rotator cuff as well in my right shoulder but with PT I managed. I thought it would be the same with my back, but it wasn't meant to be. They removed the...
I've been watching this site for a bit and decided to join. It seems like a good place to talk and learn from others on how to continue to adjust to this. I've been dealing with pain for a little...
