    speakin of Veggy(my fav.subject) her hubby called me a little while ago

    He finally was able to get on the threads...he was so happy and sad to read all the wonderful posts on the Veggy thread.I don't no if he went on all these threads but he did go there.

    Next week I will meet up with him

    I asked him to bring the kids...he did not reply.

    We had a very short conversation cause he heard me get pissy and I think he was too.

    He told me to thank everyone. I have a surprise for him.

    If anyone wants any more info please pm myself or Alyson.

    Big huggggg

    Ms Kracker,  Must be hibernating, you think?

    I've been thinking about you and your visit with Veggy's family.  How are they doing?

    Changing oncologists again;  see new one Monday.  Hope he is on the ball.  Last 2 weren't.

    Ladies, I'm home safe and working my computer job this morning - am swamped with work.  I need to ask some opinions today..  I am off the gabapentin, the nerve pain is back with any exercise or movement.  Pain doc wants me to take nortriptyline..  I tried it a couple of weeks ago - just one "small" dose and I was wiped out for 3 days.  He gave me a smaller dose and wants me to try it again.  Now that I'm home from the grandsons.. I am not too sure I want to do it.  I keep telling myself the pain isn't "that" bad and I'm taking tylenol #3s in the day and Tramadol at bedtime.  Pain is still there but I am sleeping.  "that" bad is = to 5/6 pain level.  I know you all aren't doctors, but what would you all do?

  • spookiesmom

    I just read something about keeping up with pain. Said you can't eliminate it completely, but you can knock it down to live able enough to function through the day. And if that means taking pain meds on schedule, then do. 

    So I guess if I were you, I'd try to get by with the least amount of meds, reserve the "big guns" for the really bad days. 

    I love my lidocaine patches. Have you tried them?

    And once you have proven you don't do well with pills, there are fentanyl patches, or implanted pain med pumps. You still have options. 

    Does any of this make sense?

    Spookiesmom, yes, I did that and I started to lose weight because of the dizzy and nausea.  So first he wanted me off the gabapentin first.  Now the only thing he comes up with is this nortriptyline stuff.  It is scary stuff.  I'm allergic to the adhesives on the patches.  Doc has made me a pain cream, but doesn't seem to do anything and is hugely expensive.  I'm kinda between a rock and a hard place.
