Good morning to all! "The pain is not going to get better. what I have is a progressive disease. " Told my pharmacist today and will tell my GP and MAID shrink next week the following week Then I will schedule pain specialist. I went from being in bed in Canada to Mexico where I was standing in a
Seglentis is generically celecoxib and tramadol hydrochloride. Whether it is more effective and safer than other opioids I guess will be known soon. I still dream about a totally effective non-addictive pain medicine. I doubt this is it but at least they're still working on it. See drugs.com
I’m not sure why I’m sharing this, so many are so much worse off than I am but here I am hoping that maybe someone will have had a similar experience and may have an answer or a thought…this may be all over the place but I’ll try and stay in a two year timeline order 54f I have had back pain since
Hello, I have a few questions about Scheuermann's disease and pain management. Right now I'm at the place where the pain is becoming almost unbearable. I've tried many different pain medications, such as amitriptyline (for chronic pain), tizanidine, celecoxib, gabapentin, ketoprofen, and etoricoxib.
Sorry, this is long, I’ll try to keep this brief. Basically, I’ve had chronic back pain for as long as I’ve been alive- diagnosed with mild scoliosis at 7. Did physical therapy, had every physical therapist tell me the scoliosis wasn’t the problem. Turned 18, could take myself to a doctor, got diagn
After almost four years of suffering through various forms of chronic pain, I was finally put on a muscle relaxer (cyclobenzaprine aka Flexeril at the lowest oral dose of 5 mg ONCE per day, AND ONLY when needed during a flare - so not even the recommended dosing instructions of 5mg 3x per day, lol.
Doctors in the UK are pretty primitive about fibromyalgia and its implications. I'm a doctor myself and know how the vast majority of my colleagues are ignorant of the condition, outside of a rheumatologist they either don't bother treating it or will aggressively peddle non treatments because "it's

I just came across this sad story about a man suffering with pain from **bone** cancer (extremely painful!) who could only get Gabapentin for pain relief. He and his wife of 52 years jumped to their deaths holding hands. Now imagine if he had received proper pain relief! This is utterly heartbreakin
New study just dropped recently. We are so cooked 😔 https://bmjgroup.com/nerve-pain-drug-gabapentin-linked-to-increased-dementia-cognitive-impairment-risks/
Day 5 tomorrow admitted with intractable neck pain and new evolving neuro symptoms. MRI tomorrow to see if my brain or my cervical spine are responsible for whatever is happening to me. Some unpleasant possibilities on the table like MS or my cancer coming back and I'm growing a uterus in my brain �
I need to feel like I’m not crazy. I was diagnosed with fibro about two years ago. Underwent quite a few tests including an EMG to rule out other things. Currently taking gabapentin to help symptoms. But along with the pain I get so many muscle twitches. Kind of like when you get that really annoyi
Today my boyfriend of a year told me he doesn’t think I should be taking my opioid pain medication any longer. I have had chronic pain for 18 years, have tried every single thing I could think of, that was recommended to me, have had multiple surgeries, and ended up with CRPS in my right hip/thigh.
I'm going to share my story and what I've found does work and doesn't work for me. Feel free to ask questions. And feel free to comment with your own journey. I was diagnosed at 23. I went to Disney world and on the second day I woke up and couldn't walk. I was in so much pain. My legs and feet wer
And the only fibromyalgia drug in existence as far as any of them know is gabapentin, but gabapentin makes it so you can't feel your clitoris.
I had my monthly appointment with my PM doc this morning. I brought up the new drug that has just been approved by the FDA and wanted to get his thoughts on it. He said and I am quoting him pretty detailed here; The drug has only been approved by the FDA for acute pain only, as in post surgical pa
