Donna -Massive Pain In The Butt!!!

[Guest guest]

Thanks Donna for the advice. Unfortunately I am allergic to Ibuprophen and

tylenol hasn't even touched the pain that I am in! I called my Dr.'s office and

I will see if they do or recommend anything. I know because of the gastric

bypass I cannot take naproxen either....so what does that leave?

Re: Massive Pain In The Butt!!!

Chrystal,

Definately sounds like sciatica to me. I have had it for years and

am a nurse. You should call your OB. Ibuprofen worked well for me,

and during my first pregnancy I was told I could take it up to 20

weeks, however that was 5 years ago! I am not sure if they are

recommending ibuprofen at all now a days. If not, I am sure your OB

can recommend something to help. I can empathize...it really

hurts!!!

Good Luck!

Chrystal,

Maybe see if some Lidocane patches can help? My pain management doc has

prescribed this for me for the arthritis in my spine. It does help some, takes

away the pain enough to make it tolerable, I just end up feeling pressure. The

nice thing about these is that the lidocane never enters your system so nothing

can possibly get to the baby, and you can wear one on the area your having pain

for up to 12 hours, 3 patches at a time if needed. I hope you get some relief

soon.
