Having said that, I never really seem to get anything from them but relief. Nothing pleasurable or whatever the fuk you are supposed to get from taking them. But I still get the withdrawal symptoms.I've never done heroin, so can't really compare, but the oxycocet I take for pain is the only thing that seems to touch it. Not every day that i take it but at least every other. Fuk I wish there was an alternative because now i am noticing that on days where it is really bad and I have to take more than a couple of them, I fall into this 36 hour trap. Day and a half after taking them my whole body feels like it is going to explode from tension. It's brutal. Makes me crawl the walls. I am assuming it is some kind of withdrawal. Nasty.
Man, that's fukn depressing. Maybe in a past life you were an Auschwitz guard that used to rifle-butt Jews in the side of the head?Just an update since I haven't posted since god knows when... I'm still in fucking pain, daily. Not sure how to rate it, never gets beyond maybe a 5 or so? Specialist on my health plan as of May put me on Indomethacin with the potential diagnosis of Hemicrainia Continua (even though this doesn't feel like a headache). While the meds seem to have stopped these acute attacks of pain, it seems like the constant background pain has only stayed the same, or maybe gotten worse. My right lower side of my face, ear,and jaw feel as though I've woken up after someone beat my face with their fist for hours straight. It's just constant ear jaw tongue soreness that is driving me up a wall. My next visit is in the end of September, but this is a year now almost of just constant facial pain and discomfort, and I've had an incredible amount of difficulty at times coping with it. It's never excruciating, but still, it's bad enough that sometimes the burning and soreness can just take me completely out of the moment.
Baek - have you tried these firsthand?take 2 of each of these once a day on an empty (3hr since eating) stomach.

It's been 8 long months for me. I can't fathom how some of you guys go through this kind of pain for y e a r s . . .I have been listening to Dr. Drew's podcast lately and I don't know if he knows what he's talking about but he claims that opiates are no good for chronic pain. He says patients tell him that their pain is a 10 out of 10. Then they get off the opiates, have a couple weeks of really shitty withdrawal, and then tell him that their pain is a 4 out of 10 with no drugs at all. I don't know if it's the addiction making you feel like you are hurting more so you will keep taking the drug or what, but he claims that long term the opiates actually make the pain worse, even though they are very good for intense pain (cancer, etc.).
That was an awfully considerate response. Betraying my own biases, I see somatic people--everywhere.Are you sure you understood the neurologist correctly? When we are going to rule something out, we have to run a whole slew of tests. I wouldn't take it as meaning he does not think it's TN, unless he specifically stated it as such. It sounds like his preliminary diagnosis is "hemifacial pain", but remember the diagnosis of trigeminal neuralgia is clinical, which means there are no tests that he can run to "prove" this diagnosis, and that you diagnose it based on history and physical exam.
Yep. Went to the doc for lower back / right leg pain. Doc determined it was a pinched nerve/ciatica thing from sitting on a fat wallet. I also had some pain in my left knee when 'bounding' up stairs, where I would wince and have to take steps one by one. A health supp friend recommended these 3 items and after some research I ordered them online. I was skeptical at first but after like a week I noticed a huge difference. I am bounding up stairs like no wish and still keep my wallet in my back pocket no problem. I took 2 of each of those a day for 2weeks now I just take 1 of each every week or so. Look into a good probiotic too. Inflammation is usually the cause of joint/arthritis like pain and healing the gut can solve an amazing amount of problems.Baek - have you tried these firsthand?
Thanks for the supplement info - appreciated.Anyone's pain coincide with their diet or time of day at all? Would be interesting if its worse following a beer and pizza bender.
