Oh ooops, I looked it up online & didn't realise it's actually a "sciatica???"I guess...I don't know...Now I'm confused....
Oh yeah & also how do I approach this with my PM dr? I know dr's don't like it when you go in saying "I think I might have a sciatic nerve." Maybe I could say "I've been having these symptoms, do you...
What's a sciatic nerve? I was reading someone's post to a friends fb status that the pain from a sciatic nerve is like a pain in your lower back that goes down into your hips and sometimes into your...

Yeah, that's what my MIL was saying about my FIL that he's just not use to it. Or he was in a bad mood....It's hard not to be depressed about it. I wouldn't say I am depressed but I am sad that he's...
Merrida, I have been on them for 9 days now. Oh shoot, I forgot to take mine this morning & my husband forgot his too. It's suppose to be a pretty strong one since the dentist knows I have been on...
Sunny13, no need for apology, I totally understand the need to vent. Actually thank you for rambling, I didn't think to try warm salt water, it might help a little....Your oral surgery sounds super...

I can't take it, it hurts way way too much. I'm about to go grab some pliers and pull the d*** tooth out myself! (Not literally, been there, done that with a different tooth, didn't work.) Bad teeth...
OOOO, ouchie ouch ouch!!! I hate teeth pain. It is the worst! I had an oral surgery done too where the dentist wasn't anticipating it to be so bad. They had to cut out a big chunk of my gums & take...

Thanks for reminding me. Lol. My husband and I wanted to look at it. Didn't watch it but it was cool looking at it...I don't know about any of you but it had a tint of red to me anyways....
Does anyone else's pain come back sooner than the time you can take your next dose? I prescribed 3X's a day, My husband said If I don't need one in the middle of the night then I can take one every 6...
As Vickie said, I too am always noticing the pain just more so sometimes than others. The new pain med helps but still doesn't take it all away, it's either hurting some place or another....Mine gets...
