I’m just going to complain. I’m so sick of this. My left hand, arm and side of my neck started hurting Saturday PM so bad I couldn’t sleep. Took an OTC pain reliever, made me sick to stomach. Yesterday I managed to do a little cleaning but started hurting so bad I couldn’t even go to superbowl party. Hurt all night and today couldn’t even go swim. Ill try hot bath later but wish I could have a masseuse come to house.
There, maybe complaining will make me feel better. Thanks.
Oh no, this is not good.
I’m so sorry you are hurting, Rusty.
You just complain away!
Rusty have you ever considered taking turmeric? I have bad arthritis and started putting it my eggs every morning and the pain is much better! Just a thought, you probably already knew ☺️
That’s what I’m here for. If anybody understands arm pain, it is me. And you have it even worse with your neck involved.
I’m sorry it ruined your weekend.
Do you think it is all stemming from your neck?
I hope a hot bath helps. I get these thermacare wraps, they heat up upon exposure to oxygen and stay warm for about 12 hours. It’s a gentle heat. I use sock tops to hold them on my arm, and I cut them up, so one pad can do an entire arm. That gentle heat all night long really helps.
I’ve never used one, but I know a lot of people that swear at chiropractors.
*HUG*
I’m so sorry!
OTC pain meds suck at pain relief, and “rat” your stomach out!
How CAN your PCP be so cruel as to issue you 20 crummy pain pills for a YEAR?
Oh I do so understand, I could not manage to do anything today but cry, and that is WITH sufficient (according to them) pain meds. It’s pretty bad when you have to count them out, and decide if the pain today is bad enough to take it, or wait for a worse day, am I right?
Why can I picture you doing it in my minds eye?
Probably because it’s true..been there!
This is what we have to thank the addicts and the spoiled rich who bribe their doctors for more.
(I am by no means saying that all rich do this, but plenty do!)
Rusty, have you ever been to a pain clinic and your pain evaluated there? I did once, and the Doc there told me they were gonna take away my pain meds, and teach my brain to deal with the pain through Yoga.
So let’s see you and I
Can barely walk
Your left hand, arm and neck hurts so bad..
But they want(ed) us to get down, as in on the FLOOR
on a MAT, and twist and turn like a pretzel!
I only hope the gurneys they put us on to take us to the hospital can retain us on them as we remain in the shape of said pretzel on the way to the ER!
