giving shots of demerol

[Guest guest]

Hi to all,

I have read posts from 2 people that give themselves shots of

demerol. Do the shots mess with your head or are they better to just

relieve the leg pain and not affect the head? That would be so

WONDERFUL!!! I try to keep doing now with pain and I could do so much

more without it. My husband and I (he did most) fixed Christmas

dinner for 11 and by the end of day one preparing, I was SOOO

exhausted and by the time company arrived I was worn out but we made

it. This struck me weird, as worn out as I was I could NOT sleep well

for the next 5 nights. When I awoke my hair looked like I had been

doing acrobatics all night. Does this sound par for the course? Last

night was FINALLY good!! So maybe I am back on track. I'm off to work

today. Also, I've read about fainting, is this a norm too with MSA?

In 1996 I fell at work and did not know why I fell. All of a sudden I

was seeing a doorjam, had NO clue of going down until that point. A

customer told my fellow employees that came to help me that I fell

very hard. Thanks goodness I didn't break anything BUT, in '98 I fell

ontop of my cane and split the ball in my shoulder in two. I was in

St. Louis with my mother and sister for a wedding and had a horrible

9 hour trip home that night, after I was released from the ER, it

should have only been a 6 hour trip. Maybe some relief is around the

corner for me, OH I HOPE SO!

Hugs to all,

Valarie
