Guest guest Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Doesn't taking more help? Why would he give you a rx for a pain pill with caffine? That's great for headaches, but is it effect on other types of pain? It just seems like it's one more ingedient you don't need. Does it keep you awake. I'm really frustrated because I just looked thru my deleted emails and found out you live north of Dallas. I'm only 3 hours away from you.....but in my condition, it might as well be 30 hours. I have been in your situation before and it is really awful. I've been in so much pain that I'm absolutely desperate and my meds are not working. Last night was one of them. Which pain dr. did he refer you to? Make sure he/she does pain meds before you waste your time. Jill Called the dr again/ no luck with the meds > > > I called and was a bit more aggressive with them.

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Yes the caffiene makes me restless and upset to my tummy. also not good for my HBP. He won't give out vicodin anymore. He used to, but today I found out he will only give out this or darvocet. Both worthless. I am seeing a dr barthalomie SP? Spose to be a pain specialist for spine problems. We shall see. Wow you are practically a neighbor, lol. I know what ya mean about driving. Hope your pain goes away too.

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 I just came from the Rh. She upped 3 meds and is going to research whether Topomax and Lyrica can be taken together. In the meantime; I have to increase the 3 Rx's one at a time. It's Lyrica, tramadol and Soma. It's a sad day when people have to beg and plead for relief. Relief that is out there. I'm sorry you didn't have any better luck getting through. I'm not sure I did either. Seems like there's a script they are all following.

Guest guest Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 Jill, Where was this guy from? There was a lady here in East Texas that her boyfriend shot her in the face. She has even been on Oprah about it. I can't remember the guys name. Could this be the same guy from East Texas????

Guest guest Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 Jill, Doing what I did took alot of courage but I couldn't have done it without the help of my family. But, I understand the feeling of being trapped. That's what I felt for many years being with my first husband. Having gone through what I did has made me stronger and has helped to make me the person I am today. After about 1 year of counseling I decided to send him a thank you card! I know, it sounds crazy. But, it stated that with all the pain and heartache you put me through all those years you have helped me to become a stronger woman, an indepedant woman who can stand on her own two feet!!! Thanks for making me strong!!! I thought at first it was going to send him back after me, but I think it just humilated him! I also told him how being abused affected me emotionally. It wasn't truly thanking him, but I just wanted him to know how him beating on me and emotionally abusing me had done to my life and to my children. My kids didn't want anything to do with him and he just couldn't understand it. He told his lawyer that I was witholding the kids from him. They told the judge they didn't want to be around him because they were scared of him. Me and my kids have done fine over the years since then. I married a wonderful man who took them as his own and has been a positive role model for both of them. You have a teaching degree so have you thought about maybe teaching at a place like Sylvania. Where they help kids that are not doing well in school? I wanted to teach so badly! I was only about 1 1/2 years away from my teaching degree when I was stricken by my illnesses, so now all that is put on hold and I don't see myself ever teaching. That was my goal in life. I love children and love to see them grasp onto the concept of learning. When you teach and you look into that group of children and all of a sudden you can see it in their eyes that they understand what you are saying. While I was going to school I was also a subsitute teacher at our local school. I was in high demand and would be booked months in advance. I was even asked one year to take over a class that the teacher just up and left. I was teaching 6th grade reading and I just loved it. I feel in love with all the kids and the principal told me that she was just amazed at how well I did since I really had no formal training. My kids were the best behaved in the school and my weekly planner that had to be turned in each Monday morning she said was better than she received from the other teachers. I want to teach so badly, but now health wise, it just not feasable. Sometimes you just have to do what you need to do!!! I know you feel trapped, but there are ways that you can prepare yourself if he should ever leave. You have to start thinking about what you are going to do. I love you and I know God will see you through any tough time. Put your faith in him, for he will never leave you.

Guest guest Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 I moved her from Reno in 93 {Grew up in WA state and moved to NV in 86} and never dreamed what I was in for. Humidy about killed me at first and the storms still freak me out. we had a tornado near the house here once and , I and her friend huddled in the laundry room. Got dark and you could here the freight train sound. Very freaky. In fact had that happen a couple times. It scares me when the sirens sound. Have gone through hail and straight line winds too. We also have lapsed insurance on our house. That is another reason I hate the storms. Had a chimney fire back in Jan, and could not get it fixed. Hubby thinks he is so great at bills and he really isn't. Otherwise we woul dhave coverage. Let is lapse on our cars for 7 months. I finally got some insurance myself for us. Iam in the fort worth area. Not too far from Austin. Couple hours drive. we ought to meet up sometime. Hard to type when my kitty Bow is trying to help, lol. Have a great day.
