Guest guest Posted February 5, 2003 Report Share Posted February 5, 2003 Hi Connie, I don't know what you take for pain, but I can tell you heavier duty pain medication has helped me to continue living my life and that's no joke. I cannot take any NSAIDS (ibuprofen, celebrex, vioxx, etc). I have too many GI problems. If you are living in pain, you really should see your specialist and see what other options you have. Do you have a good rheumatologist or other doc that you trust? Most of us here are pain experts, unfortunately! If you have any questions at all, someone here is likely to be able to help. Take care and think about making that appt. You will be glad you did.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2003 Report Share Posted February 5, 2003 Donna, I am having a goodnight. In pain as usual, I am afraid I am going to have to ask for something stronger. I have been so careful about addicting drugs, but dealing with this 24/7 and waking up because of it has to stop.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2003 Report Share Posted February 5, 2003 Donna, Thanks for the help. I would appreciate any ideas about what works and does not work. I know it depends on the person, but recommendations are recommendations. No rheumalogist in this area. I have been taking Ultram for a couple of years. Might try my regular MD, I am due for a check-up anyway on my to do list for tomorrow.
