Today everything is getting to me. The pain, the struggle, everything. I'm not sure how much more I can take.
Noah hasn't left my side since I got home from the hospital. He's my best bud.
@Tacitus_Kilgore yikes, sorry mate.
@Tacitus_Kilgore Everything has been a bit sharper and more emotionally charged for me lately. I genuinely have the hardest time keeping my emotional health in check this time of year.*hugs* As a fellow spoonie, I get it man.
@Tacitus_Kilgore Hang in there! So sorry you're in pain 🫂
@Tacitus_Kilgore chronic pain is a bitch, but you can get to the other side of it. Keep searching for solutions and we'll keep cheering you on
@Tacitus_Kilgore
❤️ (((( Hugs))))
@Tacitus_Kilgore hello my friend. I’m sorry you are in pain .
@Tacitus_Kilgore
Pain is one dirty bastard. Sorry you're going through it. 💙
Don’t you dare apologize! Just do what you can to get from one day to the next. Sending healing thoughts. 🤗
@Tacitus_Kilgore Happiness is a warm cat. 😻
@Tacitus_Kilgore Cats and dogs make the best nurses.
@Tacitus_Kilgore Hugs for you both. I so hope your pain will lessen soon, back pain is the worst. When my back goes out, it takes a solid 2 weeks on my back, knees elevated, heating pad applied and Excedrine every 4-6 hrs.
Do you have anyone living with you to help?
Puttycats are wonderful soul and physical healers 🥰😻🥰
♥️ I’m so sorry you’re going through this, @Tacitus_Kilgore
@Tacitus_Kilgore that sounds like severe pain, when it’s a struggle to think. Take care and I hope it lessens
I am sorry to hear there’s been no relief for your pain.
@Tacitus_Kilgore Have you tried taking extra strength paracetamol and an NSAID at the same time? They enhance each other when taken together. I know what it's like to run out of pain meds when you're still in chronic pain.
I also missed the cause of your back pain, I'm sorry. I hope resting alleviates your pain and you can start to move around some more again. I know it's hard waiting and doing nothing. 😔
@SandHillThicket Years of physical labor are catching up to me
@Tacitus_Kilgore ugh. I'm sorry. I hope you can get an MRI or CT at some point. My uncle just had a fusion due to malalignment and sciatica (close to severing the nerve). Both of my parents have had fusions from degenerative discs. My older brother said his back is starting to hurt. It's definitely in both our futures... 😔 Totally sucks.
@SandHillThicket The ER doctor is scheduling a CT for me. It's a waiting game now.
@Tacitus_Kilgore Oh, good! I'm glad! 🙏🏼
@Tacitus_Kilgore so sorry you’re in pain … hope you get some relief soon.
Apologies for earlier. The pain is making me a little crazy. I took the last painkiller the hospital gave me a little while ago and I'm not looking forward to the week ahead. I can barely stand.
