Why wear a ribbon?

"I wear this ribbon because Alzheimer's in in our family, I have fibromyalgia, I'..." (igimom)

MDJunction to me

"In the 3 months I have been with MDJunction I have developed a sense of calmness. I now friends who do not judge me because I have been a mental mess at times. It is such a good feeling to have friends I can tell my deepest thoughts and always get back to me with their support. I have never seen a therapist for long periods of time. Right or wrong, this is the best therapy possible for me. Thanks Roy for getting this up and running and making such a difference in my life. Sara" (saralaurie)

i take tramabol only when the pain starts getting unbearable. i don't wait too long because it doesn't work as well. I only wish i could get delodid at home. that really works.

Hi Teri,

What is delodid? Is that on the same level as other pain killers?

no delodid is what you can get in the hospital via iv for pleurosy pain and other "MAJOR" pain. you feel the warm fuzzy go through your arm, you get about one minute of no pain and then you sleep for four hours straight. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOD STUFF..........

Ok, so that's some serious stuff. Prob. Addictive. But helpful when that pain is screaming at you.

unfortionatly it is the only thing sometimes that takes away all of the pain. unfortunately i have to be in the hospital with pleurosy. but, other then that great stuff. highly addictive and very regulated,but so much better then even iv morphine.

I'm sorry to hear that. I've had the IV morphine, but, of course, not after every other thing they tried didn't work. You know, because I ONLY have Fibromyalgia and am not in that much pain. I was in ER earlier this year because I was dizzy and sick, I don't know, long story short I ended up being dehydrated. I had never experienced that before, so I didn't know...very painful and I was hallucinating (sp?)after a few weeks and didn't think I need to go to the doc after a while - till I couldn't walk, eat or anything else. Then I go to ER and I guess they think all I want is drugs (because that's how they treat everyone).

Ok, I guess it was a long story. But anyway...what was my point?

Fibro Fog?

Oh, hell, I can't sleep. And I'm itchy all over.

Thanks for the info.

Summer
