Re: Pain in right shoulder and back... bad and getting worse

[Guest guest]

When hubby gives me a hug, his hands go on my lower back, kind of upper

butt but not butt if that makes any sense. I hide my cringing. I never

want him to know that a hug hurts, but it hurts! It makes me angry at

IT that a hug from my loving husband hurts like that.

Melody - Just ask him not to squeeze. He can hold you gently without it

hurting, can't he? He sounds like a great guy and I'm sure he'd understand.

I know you don't want to give into the monster. You want to defy it. But

is it worth the pain?

a book and my husbend helps me to reach the ones I cant. It does take

the pain down to point you can get love and embraces from your guy

without screaming out. You look for the hard lumps in the muscle and

now the hard part=== push down on it for 20 seconds and it will

relax, aleast enough to slow the pain. Hope it helps you,

He knows where it hurts, but sometimes he just forgets I guess. I love

his hugs so much and usually it doesn't hurt to hug, but this week is

just brutal for me. Normally we can hug and it not hurt.

I wish I could give him the world though. You all have no idea how much

that man does for me. He's truly an angel on earth.

No I haven't tried that, I'll have to look into it.

Normally the intensity of pain isn't this bad, but this week has just

been brutal and it's like a bad flare.

Melody,

Has your doctor tested your bilirubin or done and

ultrsound on you, just for the sake of knowing or to

make sure it might not be your gallbladder giving you

a time of it.

Do you have any pain under your right rib cage too.

No tummy pain today, and my gallbladder is a-ok. I don't usually deal

with abdominal pain unless it's an ibs day (way lower abdominal) or

female related. If I'm nervous or stressed, my actual stomach might

hurt. But today my tummy feels really good!

I guess I haven't had a bilirubin test because I don't know what that is.

When I flare, it's my back, arms, hips, upper 'butt' area (just below

the back just above the butt), insides of my elbows and inner arms,

inside of my legs/knees, neck, shoulders, back oh wait I already said

back. I have an all over achiness and feeling like I've been beaten.

Today I worked out, took a naproxen, and had a hot bath. The pain level

went down several notches and I feel better than I did when I woke up.
