Guest guest Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 :, What about tramadol? I know that they gave it to me in my IV when I was in the hospital, but it did WONDERS for my pain! I know that they have it in pill form too. I need a good anti-inflammatory med for break-thru pain caused by my swelling. I can't take naproxen, it messes with my kidneys too much. But I don't know what else to take! Darlene -- In Fibromyalgia_Support_Group , " vh " wrote: > > I am hoping the specialist will give me what I deserve tomorrow.

Guest guest Posted April 18, 2008 Report Posted April 18, 2008 Good Morning to all! Well, my injection has come and gone and I am no better today than I was yesterday. The procedure was very painful!! They gave me only mild sedation so I could still feel all the pressure of the needle and I screamed one time when I think what he hit was the nerve itself. He then told the lady giving the sedation, " It her again " I actually laid there and cried!! Upon leaving the clinic I had 50% of my pain relieved and by 7pm I was back to 100% of pure pain. I don't know what the next step will be, but I can tell you this, it will not be another injection. I am done!!! I am finished!!! These doctors don't understand that each time I have one of these injections after the insurance pays I am stuck with paying, each time, about $450. I am up to my ears in medical bills and I have payment plans set up for most, but the ones that don't allow me to set anything up, well...they call me everyday. I guess they think If I don't have any money today, then I will be able to SH** it out over night and have it tomorrow, so they call again!!! I hope that your procedure goes well for you. I will pray that it does. Gentle Hugs to all, Debra B Gladewater, Texas Re: Another Injection/Debra B I am so sorry you are hurting and worried about this infection. I have that coming up also on the 21st. For all 9 discs. they are putting me to sleepfor it. are they for yours? I hope so. I will keep good thoughts and pray all will turn out well for you.
