iam pee'd off with this

iam too ill to sleep
iam fekin nacked too and at that grumpy stage us men get to with no sleep nor ex
iam at mi witts end on what to do next with the pain
it gets to a stage were i can not move at all but need to move or my legs go dead
mi pain killers are doing naff all and i take 5 at a time too
mi diverticulosis are playing up i seem to be full of painful sh1t this week
mi spines playing up too so cant keep still
and all i want is some sleep

i have tryed just about everything and anything that i could have but nothing seems to work
mi doctor is wacked off it
he keeps saying '' the pain killers your on would knock me out''
they are crap in my opinion
only thing thats working is the antisickness i take to stop me doing an exorcist stye borff across the room

i could do with a a few names of realy good pain killers
coz them things iam on tiz silly taken 5 when iam sure there is 1 out there that would work
i dont exspect too much tho
any ideas dudes

well iam off to try something silly

mate go see an osteopath to get your spine sorted, pain killers will do nothing for it. You need anti inflammitory medication. Go back to your GP and DEMAND a second opinion

i dont get a very good sleep due to my back, shoulder and neck.

back and shoulder due to the army

neck due to a crash.


i would definatly go see the back doctor and get it checked, sounds like its quite bad.

Presuming that you've got a chronic condition your best bet would be to go to your GP and ask to be referred to your local "pain clinic". They are probably best placed to advise on drug treatments and other non-drug treatments (tens machines, "alternative" therapy, etc)

You might find this website useful too. Check out the page with the guy's CV on - you might get a few ideas that you can take to an appointment at a pain clinic.

What drugs are you on at the moment?

[JUDWAK]

1 400mg ibuprofen or i take diclofenac in place of ibuprofen
2 50mg tramadol
2 30/500mg cocodamol

and 1 cyclazine (antisickness)

my disks in my spine leak then my spine rubbs togeather hurts like a mofo
i have diverticulosis too thats were painfull sh1t is for now
but when both play up
its horrid
my silly thing helped tiz not something i should say on here tho

George have you tried the Gabopentin.I am on 900mg a day to help with the nerve pain i have but i don't know if it will be any good for what you have.
I am on the
900mg gabopentin
30/500 co-codomol upto 8 a day
Amitriptyline upto 25mg at night to help relax and sleep
20mg Fluoxetine in the morning to help with the breakdown i had a few years ago but overall it helps keep me calm as i would have fits of rage and don't know what i've done.
The medications i'm on help alot but i still have the pain but more bearable by taking the pills

Amitriptyline they make me feel ruff i did try em tho

Gabopentin i have not tryed and will look into it

and the fits of rage you have they are conected to your breakdown
that bit makes me thing
i smoke to calm me down
but reading that i think i may have an underlining problem that i never address
i never thought my fits of rage could come from past

thats very honest of ya stormy to share that with mi
ya just made me think about mi temper and why i fly off at the drop of a hat

I've had the fits of rage for years but it wasn't till i had the breakdown and started taking the Fluoxetine that i found after a few months i was calming down, and actually feeling better in myself and better than i felt for so many years.I could of killed someone and not known about it till it was to late,thats how bad i was.
The Amitriptyline is also an Anti-depressant but the side effects are a muscle relaxant and helps you sleep.This is why i am on these as i find it so hard to sleep at times now.I have never been one for popping pills but this last 5 years they have helped me so much.I only take these at night and never daytime.They are in your system for about 12 hours but after about 10 hours your ok to start with but may be just a bit not with it still but you get used to them after a while.I take them about 3 hours before i go to bed so they kick in once in bed.
The Gabopentin is what the pain clinic actually put me on but ask your doctor anyway about it.
