Guest guest Posted March 7, 2005 Report Share Posted March 7, 2005 Hi! I went off of tramadol about a month ago and I have been trying to manage my fibro pain with....over the counter meds.....It is soooo not working. I am feeling like knives are in my muscles and they are cutting. I am a really strong person so I know that I am not being a baby. I do have some vicodin on hand for these pain emergencies and I have not used any in a few months but after I return from my daughter's high school tour and program for families for next years students, I am taking a half one and if that does not work one will follow. I have the number of the pain clinic that is the one to go to for my insurance. It is part of St. Lukes Hospital in Milwaukee and I will be calling them tomorrow. I am also planning on starting my journey to obtaining disability. I just can't keep on pushing myself anymore. I would be getting about $818 monthly on disability and I am lucky to make $360 on my freelance newspaper job as things stand now. I am only working 10-15 hours a week and it is hard to keep up with the house and my other obligations. Pray for me or think kind thoughts as this is a bit of a crisis for me. Penny G.
