Fell down at work. Went to the ER. No broken bones but they gave me Morphine and sent me home with percocets.
Morphine made me feel like my blood was made of soda fizz and came on hard rush with a heavy chest and nausea. After a few minutes I was right as rain. Now I'm taking percocets and Valium and I am dopey and itching all over but the pain is managable. The X-rays showed I have severe spinal arthritis. Middle age sux. |
| Yeah I cannot take morphine or codeine due to dry heaving after taking them. I would say you are allergic to those which are pure opiates like I am. Did you try the percocets yet? To me they make me itchy and breathing slow way down since they are synthetic opiates. Only had Valium once and that is the shit. It relaxes you enough to ignore anything else and for me personally for the muscle spasms it worked great. Sadly I was only given that once for just one of my broken femurs. All I got after was the percoctes that did nothing for the spasms. |
| After being hit by a hospital bus in my Lightning...I now suffer 24/7 migraines, vertigo, a herniated disk at c2-c3 and three herniated disks with annular tears at s1-l5, l5-l4, l4-l3, muscle spasms that feel like a wrench on my kidneys. I wish I'd be given some damn percocet. I'm stuck on Tylenol 3 which ain't doing much |

Have been doing spinal epidural injections, trigger point Injections and just had a round of occipital lobe injections. I travel to Phoenix to see my neurologist etc. Had a VNG test done and they found a slew of issues with how my eyes track things etc. Been living this way for 2.5 years while dealing with a lawsuit against the hospital that hit me. |

Fell down at work. Went to the ER. Standing in the bucket of a front end loader is not a good idea. I don't get it? They're was a thread very similar to yours about a week ago. A guy who was at work fell but refused to go get checked out. He was standing in the bucket when the guy in the cab dropped him onto the floor knocking him out. At least you got checked out. |

That's possibly a sigh of allergic reaction. Maybe not now, but 1/2 way through the bottle of either , might rear it's ugly head. |

Quoted:
Do core and back excercises as well as stretching. Been doing physical therapy for a bit now, and sadly I haven't gotten any better, if anything I'm hurting bad enough that I'm soaked in sweat and typically end up on my back that and the following day drugged up. Thus far I'd consider selling my soul to be back to my old self |

I have numerous injuries. Back. Shoulders. Ankles. Knees. Just tough it out. Stay off the narcotics. This is sound advice. They have ruined the lives of a shit ton of normal people. True enough, but then again, so has severe chronic pain; the kind that is so severe, and so unrelenting, that it makes you honestly consider ending your own life. Some pain simply cannot be tolerated without appropriate medication, and that medication is sometimes narcotic. |

Nothing like multiple trips a month to an ER for a huge elephant downing dose of morphine to knock you out. Chronic pain is a motherfucker make no bones |

I have had bouts when I needed them everyday for a week or two and all I could get was down to a level of constant aggravation and that sucks big time so I have a feel for people who suffer long term. I am thankful I have times of semi reprieve. |
