Hey Jude, As I get older I seem to have the same pain but stronger than ever.
Jude I have stopped taking percocet and any other pain meds. It took about a
solid month to ween off of them but now I'm glad I did. They got to where they
were causing more spasms than normal I was having to double up on percocet, I
started running out early and I couldn't get a refill so I was screwed for
several days. That caused real problems and I started having bad withdrawals.
That was when I decided to quit them. You can't imagine what that was like.
Three months latere I'm off of them completly I only take some Valium,
Gabapentin, Soma, Oxybutin and blood pressure meds. I'm alot better off without
percocets but even though I still have incredable pain I try and use mind over
matter, also I listen some Ti Che and that creates a different perspective of
mind control. If your not strong enough to ween off of pains, I don't recommend
trying this on your own, it can
get scarey. We all have to try and use our good sence with strong opiates
there so addictive and very bad for your Liver and other internal organs. I
love all of you and please use good judgement with your meds. Sometime the
initial good wil[ come back and haunt you. Please take care of yourselves. Rick
in Tn.

Hello
All,
I was just
wondering...how has your TM changed since you have gotten older? Is there
more or less pain? Are you able to get around like you used to? Are
you hampered more now than you used to be? In what
ways.
What helps you
with your pain besides medication? Do you use things like Ben Gay or
topical ointments or anything?
Do any of you,
besides Bernie, have a pain pump? I am going for my first consultation on
the 9th. I looked it up and know all about it, but I want to know about it
first hand.
Thank you all
for your answers. I am considering asking the Quad list too. What do
you think? Does anyone have those addresses? If so, may I have a few
please? Especially if they have the pump.
Love
you,
Jude
