    Default Need help encouregment.

    I need some mental help guys, my pain patches ran out and Its tough, they only last three days but sometimes come off or last only 1 1/2 days (You can see the medicine in one and you can be changing places and see that its out. 3 days ago I had my next to last patch have the end of tape swap over and cover it as I was putting it on now I'm 6 days out, the only thing that will save me is that my urologist today let get a script of loratabs to tide me over Thank the gods!! The gun was looking good. but my cats and my razors helped me through Beveled and sharpened 4 today as something to get me through. Now where's a couple of W.H. Morley boxes for sell.

    You are lucky if you can strop and use a SR when on pain meds.

    I learned the hard way not to strop when on the happy pills.

    Hope things work out for you.

    I think I'll be O.k. I don't get loopy like some folks do on them they just take the pain away and let me live a somewhat normal life, pain was around a 10 this morning I was almost crying. I had convulsions the past 2 nights because of how much pain I was in. The lower back and top of it are the worst. I almost kissed the doctor went he said sure I'll write a short script for you. I he knows the pain doctor I'm seeing and didn't seem to care for him. Oh, well. time to hit E-bay and see if I can find a box or two.

    Having had a few bouts of Kidney Stones I know what a "10" pain is. I used to pace the floor and bang my head against the wall and that was after taking a couple percocets.

    If you have bad pain like that you don't suffer you go to the Emergency Room plain and simple.

    Hope you're doing better.

    Understand... Worked with a guy who's wife came home to find him passed out on the floor. She couldn't bring him around, thought it was a heart attack, so called an ambulance. Still unconscious when he arrived at the hospital. Not a coronary, but a kidney stone !!

    I don't know you, but I really hate to hear of people suffering, I have had times in my life where the pain has been up around 10 too so I have sympathy for you. I am glad that you have found some help and that you can take some solace in the things you love.

    Hang in there.

    I've been a few days without my patches before but the pain never was this bad, I am going to get him to take some x-rays this time to see if anything has moved, etc. once I ran out the pain really climbed up fast and stayed there. I'm doing better this morning ate a good breakfast and am somewhat normal, back is really stiff but it don't hurt very much, I have a high metabolism so a 8 hour pill will only last 6 oh, well. got outbid on a Landers Frary & Clark straight razor this morning. darn.

    I have passed several kidney stones. Last October had another bout.....except it was bigger and got stuck half way. Doctor was talking surgery but there was a chance it would pass on its own. I waited until January before it was too much. Glad I got the surgery. 2 days later, the pain was back! The doctor said it was just spasms from the surgery. After 10 hours of agony I finally got some sleep. The next morning another stone came out! Not fun, I sympathize with you. If your doctor isn't doing anything about it maybe it is time to get a second opinion. Good luck and hang in there.
