Hi Everyone!
Sorry I've been gone for such a long time, but life gets in the way. Over the last couple of months I've had my ups and down, but in the end, my downs won! It feels to me that about every two months or so I end up going to the doctor after much debate with myself, and I always end up crying! Not because he's not nice to me, but because Im in so much pain and am soooo frustrated with the whole fibro thing!
At least this time there was some new pain meds to try out. OK, it is narcotics (which I never wanted to resort to), but desperate times call for desperate measures! After trying three different ones I eventually found one that I dont have to take chronically and I can take it three times a day if I need to. Oxynorm. Yip, the same as Oxycontin, but a fast release. I can't take the chronic slow release one as I have to drive a lot and dont want to be drugged all day! At least now I can suffer through the day, knowing when I get home I can get some pain relieve and sleep better.
I know it probably won't last forever. I will get used to it after a while and will need something new, but for now I at least have some relieve from the tormenting pain!
Thanks for reading!
