You want me to take this for a dislocated hip?
REally?
It feels like someone SHOT my hip.
and you want me to take something I used to take for menstrual pain?
F*** YOU.
Ugh, I hate when doctors think you are a junkie. I wish they could live through the pain for a week that we go through everyday. See how they feel after they go through their out of body experience.
Anywho, just be careful with the swearing thing next time. It offends some people around here and we have to keep it a G rated setting with younger kids around the boards and what nots! Thanks for understanding!

Biiiiiig hug...it bothers me so much that doctors assume that young people will misuse the meds. People in chronic pain actually are no more likely to become addicted to their meds than everyone else.

I hate being in chronic pain.
I wish they could just find a cure.
I haven't had a decent night's sleep in SO long, and I am starting to have horrible anxiety due to it, and depression.
My knees hurt so bad, and keep blowing out of socket..
I found out today that I have almost no feeling in my right leg, and it could be caused due to a pinched nerve in my back so I am having tests done to figure out what exactly it is, and how to correct it.
My pain meds that I am on now: Oxycontin and Oxycodone, is NOT working.
When I ask my doctor for me, he thinks I just want the high.
NO! I just want to be comfortable to the point I can sleep for just one night!
Is that seriously so much to ask for?!
