Guest guest Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 Hi Tigger I just read this and thought, did you see a ortho for your shoulder? If not maybe you could get into see one, as this is who TX my shoulder and as long as you also let them give you an injection into site, they, or again, my Dr. group up here will Rx you some pain med. I also think, unless if you have already told them, explain to your Dr. you increased, I know we are not suppose to do this, but have been guilty myself, the Med's and took them for other condition, besides the Fibro pain they will say shame on you and fill it early this one time. I now have to be carefull and have been up front, and if I have a different issue, like when tooth, shoulder, fell and did back, I have that seeing Dr. give me a RX from there office as to not use up my Fibro pain Meds., though this seems stupid as pain is pain is pain and if something comes up that we use more some times they should refill. I know we are suppose to call and ask for permission to increase, I didn't, I have been repremended, by my doc., but I also worked in healthfield all my life, was a med tech., and no most meds and there potential harm, but so is the RESENTLESS unbearing pain. I know I must have my liver and kidneys on worn out state, but I can't live with myself being in pain all the time neither, and did probably alot of prior damage from so many OTC all the yrs eating them all day also, without food. Hope something gives for you..I would call though if you haven't if it not let up, how soon before you can refill? Take Care Hope you a lighter day Sharon vh wrote: *Well no wonder you are having sleep issues. One cannot go cold turkey off meds like that without withdrawal symptoms. I know this from experience.
