Life can really suck Mood
Monday, February 9, 2009 | A Venting story

I am in a pisser of a mood this pain is driving me nuts.  No pain meds took the last 2 that I had and  saved them so I could watch my youngest son at a wrestling tournament.  I was not going to miss it no matter what.  BRAGGING HERE  He took first place.  I sat on the bleachers for 10 hours.  I was ok as long as the meds worked but am paying for it since.  I sit and cry and sit some more.  The pain has the anxiety over the roof.  I hate taking x but its the only way I can not go out of my mind.  I know I  sound like a whiny child but the pain is making me angry and irritable.  I hate to wake in the morning knowing what the day will bring.  More pain.  So f******* sick of holier than thou docs that give no concern to the patient and how they feel.  I am not a pill junkie nor have I ever been.  I just want to do the things that need done.  It is so mentally humiliating to have to ask everyone to do this or carry that.  It makes me feel like a failure as a person as a mother and wife.  I don't like to be coddled over or have to always ask for help.   I had the second shot no difference in the pain I go to the chiro 4 times a week.  If i could see some relief in site it would be easier but I see nothing but more pain I am so sick of living like this.

Ok Rant over for now.

Hugs to you all.

    Gentle hugs. I understand. My dr knows I have no insurance and can't afford to come in all the time but if I want my pain meds I have to find the money for the office call. So therefore, I have to stretch them out. If they had to live in our bodies for a few hours they would act differently.

    YES, SOME DOCS ARE SO... ALOOF YOU MAY AS WELL BE TALKING TO A COMPUTER FOR ALL THE COMPASSION THEY SHOW.
    I AM SO.... SORRY YOU ARE IN SUCH PAIN. AND I DEFINITELY DON'T THINK YOU ARE WHINING. PAIN IS REAL, IT IS DEBILITATING IT SUCKS THE LIFE RIGHT OUT OF YOU. I SURE HOPE YOU SEE SOME PROGRESS SOON. DEBBIE

    Hey girl,

    I am so sorry to hear that you are hurting so badly. I know my husband has uttered every word you wrote more than once over the years. You have a lot of people who know what you are going through and care my friend.
    I wish the medical community was more empathetic with people in pain. In my book that is part of their job but unfortunately compassion is not a prerequisite to working in medicine.
    Keep holding on to God. He is the only one who helps my husband get through the really bad times.
    I am praying for you,

    Darlene
