Yes ladies and gents it is true they do exsist! I had the most amazing doctors appointment today. He listened, he believed and he prescribed! LOL I told him what my old doctor said to me, about needing to see a shrink and that pain meds dont help fibro patients and he was like that guys an idiot!

As he was talking to me...I just started to cry. He asked me if I was alright and I just said that it was just nice to be believed and understood. He wrote me pain meds and said if that didnt last me long enough to just call him and he would take care of it! And the days that I have had to got Urgent care (4 in a week and a half) that I was worried that he would be weary about it and all he said was "that was because of the birbo flare..dont worry about it". thats when I really started to cry....the nurses were great, the front desk group was great....TODAY WAS A GOOD DAY!

I FOUND HIM I FOUND HIM!!!! OMG you guys I just cant believe it!!! Hes awesome!!

YAY! I'm so happy for you!

I have an awesome doctor, with great staff too. It's wonderful to have that 'one' that will listen and understand.

YAY AGAIN!

LOL yeah I know that feeling. What does he have you taking for your pain? I have tried a ton of different things but the percocet works the best. took me alittle bit to find the right dose...used to take two but it was alittle rough on my stomach so I went to one and its perfect

Are ya ready for this??

I am prescribed:

1-2 percocet every 4 hours or as needed. And, it's usually needed!

1 Valium every 4 hours or up to 3 in one hour as needed for anxiety.

1-3 Xanax every anxiety/panic attack. At least once a day!

1 Flexeril every 4-6 hours or as needed for muscle spasms.

30 mg's of Imipramine for depression at bedtime cuz it makes me tired so it's for sleep as well.

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmm.....then I started taking herbs because of all of the side effects of the meds, so I'm on 5 different types of herbs right now as well as I taper off of the meds!

One day you're day will come where you will WANT to do this as well. Until then...enjoy your days with less pain and remember...even if you feel good because you've taken something that takes the 'edge off'...don't over-do it!!!
