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 am absolutely going to scream! I had a vacation recently with friends where on the last day my meloxicam got packed into the bag, was unreachable and I hit a flareup mid morning. Not proud of it but I had a meltdown at some point because everything was too much and they wanted to discuss everythin
My pain doctor increased my hydrocodone from 3 a day to 4 a day. My pharmacist refused to fill the prescription. The prescription was sent to them on 10/6. They didn’t fill it. So my Dr sent it again on 10/22. Now I have 2 pills left, and the pharmacist said he needs the Dr to write out his detail
it be like that.
I had to tag this as funny, in a very sarcastic way. Talk about feeling unseen. I am on meloxicam, cymbalta and Humira for my RA. Stretching, Epsom salts baths, plant based diet just in case, meditate, starting therapy, limit my caffeine, medical marijuana. I know what I forgot, ibuprofen!
Hey, all. I have chronic pain due to ehlers danlos, fibromyalgia, carpal and ulnar tunnel in both arms, osteoarthritis in my lower back, and what I think are some other issues that haven't been diagnosed. I've had pain for years and have tried everything over the counter as well as Celebrex, Meloxic
After struggling for years with doctors that either don't take me seriously, try stupid solutions that dont work or just help me learn to "cope with it" instead of working on a diagnosis i got a new primary doctor THAT ACTUALLY LISTENS!!!! I mentioned a few different things i think i could have, she
First, this is a rant and basically nothing but a rant. I'm new here and I've been reading through a lot of posts that might apply to me. I just turned 40 in Feb of this year. Memorial day weekend of 2023 my car got totaled on a drivers side impact, and I've been in excruciating pain ever since. I'v
What’s up with Pain management drs not giving out pain killers to people who actually need it? Not everyone has addictive behaviors! I just had shoulder surgery was given a script of 30 OxyContin 5s that’s it and when I asked surgeon to get it refilled I was told to go to pain management. So I go to
