Guest guest Posted September 6, 2002 Report Share Posted September 6, 2002 Donna, I go to a pain clinic about every 2 months they give me my pain meds, muscle relaxer(zanaflex which is very good) and they give me steriod shots in my shoulders, neck, back and where ever I need them, they help some but they do hurt when you get them, I haven't had any shots since the last of Jan. it is time again but I put them off as long as I can. Audie Pain Medicine Hi Everyone, I have had so much trouble getting pain medicine from doctors. I am now in pain all the time and I am on Darvocette and Robaxin (muscle Relaxant) and Celebrex. The Darvocette is the strongest I can get, yet it doesn't stop the pain. I have tried other doctors but they just want to put me on the new anti-inflammatory drugs, most of which make me sick and I cannot take. Celebrex is the only one and it only seems to help the knee and ankle joints from hurting. So for the arthritis it's helping, it's just the FMS that I'm having trouble with right now for pain relief. Lately I hurt so bad I'm starting to worry I have cancer or something. But it's comforting to know that others seem to be in a bad flare right now too. I have all the problems everyone cites here on the list so I will not go into those. I would just like to know how most of you get these heavy narcotics to help with your pain. I should mention I do not see a Rheumatologist, just a regular D.O. Is this the key? I'm just so sick of all of it and not getting anything for relief. Any suggestions? I am not a drug addict looking for a high. I really need some pain medicine that works. Thanks Donna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 6, 2002 Report Share Posted September 6, 2002 Hi Donna, I too am having trouble getting anything for pain for only when I need it really bad. My dr. is a DO also..She has me on celexa, trazadone and vioxx. But she will not prescribe anything for the pain. My trazadone needs to be increased it seems like I never sleep anymore and always so tired I can hardly go to work daily.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2002 Report Share Posted September 7, 2002 Joy, I feel for you too. I have heard bad, bad, things about Trazadone and Vioxx. I heard a commercial from a lawyer one day about people who have taken Vioxx to call because they may have damage to them. I have never seen it since. I KNOW I didn't dream this. I don't know the scoop on Trazadone but you might check into it. I know my sis is on it. She is on this list too.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2002 Report Share Posted September 7, 2002 Audie, The last time I was at a pain clinic it cost me $2500. But I had insurance then. I've been trying to stay away from them right now because of that very reason. They did a lot of spinal shots back then. They seemed to work for awhile, at least for the majority of pain, but then, I can't possibly afford that amount right now. Donna " C.

Guest guest Posted September 8, 2002 Report Share Posted September 8, 2002 Joy, I'm Donna's is and as she said, I'm on Trazadone and Vioxx. I stopped taking Trazadone because it makes me sick to my stomach, dizzy (really bad!) and it doesn't seem to keep me asleep. So, without telling my dr, I choose to get off of it and go back to Elavil. I was on Elavil for years and had great luck with it, but it stopped working, and I kept increasing the dosage. Finally, I got up to 70 mg a night! So that's why my dr switched me. So basically for the past 7 months, I haven't been sleeping and well.... You know how that goes! I feel like dodo! Anyway, you might ask about Elavil. Oh, the side affect I battle is increased appetite! That's the biggest draw back for me!

Guest guest Posted September 8, 2002 Report Share Posted September 8, 2002 Donna, I too saw that about the vioxx and I stopped taking it for awhile. I only have one pill left for tomorrow and it will be gone, I have an appointment on the 16th then I will ask my dr. about the vioxx as I have mitral valve prolapse with my heart and I don't know if I should even be taking it, I also once had an ulcer so really should not be taking as it is hard on the stomach...Don't know what we should do sometimes....Joy Pain Medicine > > Hi Everyone, > > I have had so much trouble getting pain medicine from doctors.

Guest guest Posted September 8, 2002 Report Share Posted September 8, 2002 Hi , I too had the dizziness when I first started on the trazadone but no longer have it. The vioxx does help my pain but I guess what scared me was the things they were saying about it. The trazodone worked really good for a long time, I guess my body has gotten used to the dosage and it needs to be upped. Thanks for writing, Joy Re: Pain Medicine Joy, I'm Donna's is and as she said, I'm on Trazadone and Vioxx.
