It seems like if it is not one thing it is another. I just get one type of pain under control and then here comes another one. I woke up Saturday morning with the work neck pain ever. I could not even pick my head up off the pillow without using my hands to help lift the weight of my head. I spent the entire day drugged up and had to use ice packs as well. It is now Tuesday and I am still dealing with the pain. I have physical therapy this afternoon which is supposed to be water therapy but with pain like this I feel I need to forego the pool and have manual work done and maybe ultrasound. I walk around my office trying to keep control of my urge to scream and not let everyone around me know how I am really feeling. I feel like I am hiding from myself! I just had to take pain medicine at work (which I don’t like to do) but I could not take the pain anymore. I just need to vent and am glad I have this outlet to do so because I really do feel all bottled up inside. Thank you to those of you who will read this and understand that I just needed to get this off my chest…
I just want to run away from myself and not have to deal with this crap anymore… Just having a very bad day I guess…
Hello Elaine,
I completely get what you are saying. Sometimes, actually quite a lot of times, it all gets too much! Good that you can vent on here, saves our loved ones getting it, I always think. Hope it helped, and you are having some better days. I wish you well.
Take care, Anne
Hi Elaine, how are you doing? Better, I hope. Hugs
Hi Auburnm;
Thank you for checking on me. I am feeling better than when I posted last week but still am having pain issues. Where I live it is very cold and our weather in the next couple of days is for an arctic blast of cold air. I am anticipating that I will be very flared up again soon due to the cold. I need to move somewhere warm which would greatly help. Maybe someday I can move but for now I have to deal with the cold. Again thank you for the support. Hugs back to you! Elaine
I agree that this is a great spot to vent to those who understand and not our loved ones. I hope that you are feeling some better. Those “wanting to scream” days are hard for sure. I hope your days are less painful. stay warm!
