      Thank you for the message. Are you satisfied with the hysterectomy? I don't know if I want to go through with it--especially if it does not get rid of all the pain.

    • Close Chronic Pain

      Hello...I am a 38yr old female who has been suffering with chronic pain 24/7/365 for almost 10 yrs. now...I am married to my very best friend,& was a CNA when I slipped in some water at work & ruptured 2 discs...I have gone severely down-hill since then...I have had a major back surgery 15 "procedures", & am looking at my 2nd major surgery within 3 months...I try to be as happy as I can, considering the situation...God Bless You All!

      Treatments

      Cymbalta Not Working
      I took Cymabalta for a short time...My doc took me off after about 3 months...It made me gain weight though!! I hated that part!!It just didn't work for me...
      Hydrocodone Somewhat Helpful
      I took Vicodin ES for a VERY long time...It was good while it lasted, but like everything else, I developed a tolerence & had to move on to bigger & better things...
      Lyrica Not Working
      This was alot like Cymabalta for me...Gained about 15 pounds, but didn't really see any relief...Went on to Xanaflex!!GREAT STUFF!!
      Methadone Working / Worked
      I have been on Methadoe now for about a year or so...It's one of the best that I have tried so far...I take 200mgs a day, & know I am gonna have to go higher soon...
      Oxycodone Somewhat Helpful
      I really like Percocet, but it doesn't like me...It's by far one of the best pain-killers I have ever tried, but it gives me insomnia BAD!!No thanks...I can't sleep as-is
      Fentanyl Working / Worked
      I absolutely LOVE this drug...I use it in he lollipop form of Actiq. I highly recommend it to anyone who needs break-thru meds...
      Morphine Working / Worked
      I absolutely LOVE this drug...It's extended release Morphine for thos of you who weren't aware. It combined with my Actiq~ WINNER~WINNER~WINNER!!=)
      Zanaflex Working / Worked
      I take this at bedtime for muscle spasms & to help me sleep without my legs jerking all over the place...I really like it...I take 12mgs at bedtime...
    • Close Self-Injury

      Hello...This is my 2nd community...i suffer from post-traumatic stress from al of the abuse i've gone through...sexual/physical...it's been a tough life, but im a touch chick!:) I have tried alot of different sh** but it doesn't help...

      Treatments

      Paxil Working / Worked
      It doesn't work...I have been raped 4 times, beaten & burned with cigarettes...I was pretty screwed up for a long time...I am now married to my very best friend...
    • Open Back Pain

      Hello...I am a 38yr old woman trapped in a 98yr olds body! At least that's what my back feels like! I have been suffering greatly with low-back pain for almost 20yrs now in some way shape or form...It started with being physically abused by my 1st husband & the asshole after him who liked to burn me with cigarettes too...But that a whole other talk show!=) I am in pain 24/7/365 & live on morphine & Actiq(fentanyl), & have had to quit working & driving...I will tell ya'll alot more about me!!

      Treatments

      Chiropractic Adjustment Not Working
      Actually, the chiro told me they wouldn't /couldn't touch me with a 10ft pole...LAWSUIT if they did!!
      Darvon Somewhat Helpful
      It was ok for what it was, but I needed something MUCH stronger!!
      Epidural Injection Not Working
      I was in more pain that I was before I got them!!I HATE them, & yet my Dr. & Work Comp carrier is INSISTING that I have more!!!!
      Fentanyl Working / Worked
      I LOVE this drug...I take it in the form of the Actiq sucker...Blueberry flavoring, confectioners sugar & 1600mcgs of Fentanyl!!
      Hydrocodone Working / Worked
      It worked when I was on it, but as with every other drug, I developed a tolerance to it...I was taking up to 15 Vicodin ES for almost a year!!
      Ibuprofen Not Working
      This was a JOKE for me on ALL levels!! Now, if someone were to take this with Vicodin it MIGHT help extend the amount of time that it works...Thats about it though...
      Physical Therapy Not Working
      I TRIED!! Not just once, but several times...All it did was irritate my injury, & prolong the inevitable...MORE PAIN!!!=(
      Zanaflex Working / Worked
      I really like this drug...It is like a muscle relaxer, & sleep aid in one!! I take 2 @ bedtime, & 6-10 times im able to sleep...PRAISE GOD!!!
