Good morning to all! "The pain is not going to get better. what I have is a progressive disease. " Told my pharmacist today and will tell my GP and MAID shrink next week the following week Then I will schedule pain specialist. I went from being in bed in Canada to Mexico where I was standing in a
Seglentis is generically celecoxib and tramadol hydrochloride. Whether it is more effective and safer than other opioids I guess will be known soon. I still dream about a totally effective non-addictive pain medicine. I doubt this is it but at least they're still working on it. See drugs.com
I’m not sure why I’m sharing this, so many are so much worse off than I am but here I am hoping that maybe someone will have had a similar experience and may have an answer or a thought…this may be all over the place but I’ll try and stay in a two year timeline order 54f I have had back pain since
Hello, I have a few questions about Scheuermann's disease and pain management. Right now I'm at the place where the pain is becoming almost unbearable. I've tried many different pain medications, such as amitriptyline (for chronic pain), tizanidine, celecoxib, gabapentin, ketoprofen, and etoricoxib.
Sorry, this is long, I’ll try to keep this brief. Basically, I’ve had chronic back pain for as long as I’ve been alive- diagnosed with mild scoliosis at 7. Did physical therapy, had every physical therapist tell me the scoliosis wasn’t the problem. Turned 18, could take myself to a doctor, got diagn
After almost four years of suffering through various forms of chronic pain, I was finally put on a muscle relaxer (cyclobenzaprine aka Flexeril at the lowest oral dose of 5 mg ONCE per day, AND ONLY when needed during a flare - so not even the recommended dosing instructions of 5mg 3x per day, lol.
Doctors in the UK are pretty primitive about fibromyalgia and its implications. I'm a doctor myself and know how the vast majority of my colleagues are ignorant of the condition, outside of a rheumatologist they either don't bother treating it or will aggressively peddle non treatments because "it's

6 years ago I broke my knee playing rugby. I was 33. I had a fair bit of metal put in and lots and lots of rehab. 2 years on crutches and over 4 years of physio. Nothing helped the pain and they removed the metal, which also didn’t help. I had a nerve block injection and was told it may stop the pai
In 2018 I started having daily headaches, it was in my temples, eyebrows/forehead and neck/occipital. I was bedridden for 6 years, unable to work, study, clean my own bedroom or even watching something on TV. I've taken every possible migraine medication: topiramate, emgality, amitriptyline, pregaba
The Italian Society for Rheumatology (SIR) has developed 17 recommendations for the diagnosis and management of fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS), emphasizing a comprehensive, individualized, and evidence-based approach. Below is a summary of these recommendations: 1. Comprehensive Evaluation: FMS manage
I've had to move back home due to the cost of living be so high and my mum has taken my dihydrocodeine from me. She says I take it everyday and am addicted. She says that I should just take paracetamo and be on a pain patch. I'm only taking my dihydrocodeine as prescribed for my slipped discs and p
25F just recently diagnosed so I went to the pharmacy to pick up pregabalin prescribed by my rheumatologist. Of course I hadn’t taken it before so I asked the pharmacist to go over it with me. He asks “what’s it for”? I say “fibromyalgia” then the comments of “wow you’re pretty young for that”. I gu
Title says all. I was recently diagnosed with fibro after testing negative for other autoimmune and muscle diseases. However I seem to have a unique version where I experience 24/7 muscle stiffness and inflammation. Being a little risqué, it feels like I'm tightly wrapped up in BDSM-type rope all ov
I started with 1.5mg and slowly worked my way to 4.5mg, going up 0.5mg at a time. Since the very first dose, I noticed a decrease in pain. With every single dose increase, the pain relief got better and better. When I hit 3.5mg, I had ZERO pain the next day during my 8 hours of work. That’s right -
Just a vent post really. Why is every single medical appointment such a fucking fight every time to advocate for myself and be heard??? Like even with pain management doctors who are supposed to want to help people like me. I literally asked about pregabalin because we haven’t really tried many me
