Guest guest Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 Hi group, Well the problem with my back is solved, not that I'm happy with the solution, but at least I know. I have one of " those " tumors (one of hundreds of painful lipomas, for those who don't know about Dercum's disease) about the size of a golf ball growing right next to my spinal column. It is apparently causing me to have muscle spasms, and that is what caused all my pain and difficulty moving. It's much better today, but still very tender. I've been taking Lyrica for about 2 weeks now, but it is losing its effectiveness, as I have found with other meds I have taken. Sooooo, I am back to where I was, just taking my Voltaren and Ultram, but at least they help so I won't complain. Got another tumor acting up in the arch of my right foot, so had to stay off my feet today. Tomorrow is a marathon babysitting day, from about 2 PM until maybe 9 PM when comes home. Ah, but I can sleep in as late as I want Saturday! Maybe I'll ask Ron to fix me breakfast in bed.....nah, I'd probably get Poptarts and a dandelion. Hm, well, if they are cinnamon Poptarts... Blessings to all, Judi in IN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
