- My insurance is really be pushing me to get a nerve block (I felt like saying 'so what, you're my doctor now?!' but I resisted). I think this is what my pm doc discussed with me at my first visit but he didn't recommend it for me. But insurance is...
- I addressed this concern here when I joined this site but see it has not been resolved yet. When I set up my profile, and now when I go to edit it, I cannot select the province I live in. Prince Edward Island may be small but there are people here...
- Hi everyone, I just joined this group and wanted to introduce myself. I'm Lisa and technically I'm not a stepmother yet but I know it will come in time. I am dating a man for over a year now and he has full custody of his two children son(11) and...
- I have been dealing with sciatica and lower back pain for over a year now and you'd think I'd know some tricks to make myself more comfortable. I am on medication and seeing a pain management doctor but that doesn't stop all the pain and discomfort....
- Since I've been put on these new meds I'm feeling considerably better. Which, of course, is a good thing. This has started me thinking about the possibility of going back to work. I still have to 'experiment' with sitting as this is my major...
- Since I've been on the Oxycontin my pain has been much better. Not perfect but certainly more tolerable and I'm able to do more for part of the day. The last couple of days though, I've been feeling new electrical sensations in places they never...
- I went back to my pain doctor today since the tramacet wasn't working at all and, though he gave me the OK to take my percocet for the interim, he didn't want to just leave me on it. We discussed the pain I've had the last 3 days and what effect the...
- So I had my appointment at the pain clinic yesterday and though I don't know how the new med will work yet I am very happy with the treatment I got from the doctor and nurse there. It was a very positive experience. The nurse did the intake stuff...
- Today has been a really bad pain day for me. I'm pretty sure its stress induced as I had my appointment with the orthopedic surgeon this morning. I didn't sleep well last night, had more pain than normal and was up super early with alot of pain....
- This last few days has been horrible. It is bad enough I'm in pain all the time every day but the last couple of weeks I've really been having a hard time sleeping too. I've always slept poorly but now when I wake up the pain keeps me awake and alot...
- The doctors in my area are very stuck in their view of pain medication. I have been taking Lyrica and Tylenol #3s since I got hurt last summer. I've had to increase the Lyrica twice already and I'm taking more T3s more often than I was in the...
- I don't know how to stop this cycle of pain, depression, pain, depression. I have been dealing with this chronic pain since July 1 last year and there just doesn't seem to be any end in sight. I had one really good spell last fall; not sure how it...
- I woke up this morning in horrible pain which has become the norm. It takes me about an hour to get up and this is not me... I'm a morning person. I want to hop out of bed like I used to - ready to tackle the day. I know that probably won't happen,...
- At my appointment yesterday my doctor took out my CT scan results and showed them to me. It was a bit confusing first of all because it states that there is no nerve compression... huh? So why do I have the sciatic pain and numbness in my foot and...
- Hi everyone,I am new to this group but not to pain or to DailyStrength. I belong to groups for fibromyalgia and sciatica but thought this group would be good because some days I just don't know what is causing all the pain. I was diagnosed with...
