Guest guest Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 Elly, Hang in there baby. It sounds as if you are getting worn down. You know that after a while one just cannot take the pain anymore and has to take steps to do " something " . Is it that time for you???? My guess is yes. I know the teeth are important, especially when this disease eats away at the gums the way it sometimes does. I think that I'd talk to my doctor about getting the pain under check during this time. I know the roids also control the pain by reducing inflammation, etc.... yet just cause your dose is down--which is good---does not mean you cannot have pain relief in other forms. Please, talk with your doctor on MONDAY. love, k GETTING READY TO GET MY PAIN MED. IN ABOUT 10 MINUTES. Mine is still really severe, hasn't let up yet. The Nurse I have tonight is good. She gets off at 12pm. Wonder who will come on then? Mostly the Nurses are good. Some of the CNA's are pretty worthless though and some are really good and work hard.
