Susie, may I give you some advice? Don't wait for your pain med time-line if you are in need. The pain will cause you added stress, so just take the pill earlier, write it down and it sounds like you have a pinched nerve. I found that 4 hours was too long and my threshold was more like 3-3.5 hours. Have you tried ice packs on your low back to reduce the swelling?

So sorry because that is the most aggravating pain. Warmly, Deborah

PS You are not whining.

Yes, I was taking them as soon as I possibly could - 2 - 2 1/2 hrs apart but it just wasn't enough. Was doing ice and heat on my back and leg. I couldn't handle it tho and had to call 911 in the night Sunday. They kept me until this afternoon to help me manage the pain. No more steriod injections in the spine tho. Did the morphine IV for 1 1/2 days and then tapered off and am back on the pain patch and oral pain meds. I'm better today but still hurting way too much. I'm not supposed to sit and post but wanted to let you all know why I wasn't posting the last couple of days. So, I'm headed back to my bed now.

Don't remember who posted it, but Tink is getting water therapy, I thot I had posted that earlier. I can't have that again until the wound is completely healed and there is no risk of infection. You're right - it is very helpful therapy.

Tink is the same - no change, and that is good. I'll try to post again in a day or two.

Hope you're feeling better soon. Sorry to hear you have been in so much pain.

So sorry you are in so much pain, back pain is the worst. Just trust that there is an end to all of this and you and Tink will be together soon.

Belindtch · 05-28-2008, 07:12 PM

So sorry to hear that you are in so much pain. I am sure with time it will all get better. Until then it is a matter of getting through the days and dealing with as little pain as possible. Glad Tink is still on the road to recovery. She is trying her best to heal and get better for her mommy. I can't wait until the day the two of you are back together at your home. Until then we'll continue to keep you in our daily thoughts and prayers. Hope your pain is somewhat better. We look forward to your updates.

Susie --

So sorry you are hurting. I wish there was something I could do to ease your pain.

HUUUUUUUGE hugs to you and Tink. And Ozzie sends sloppy Yorkie kisses.

cdawnfine · 05-30-2008, 03:15 PM

Just checking for an update, hope you are both feeling better

saphire · 05-30-2008, 03:23 PM

Aw Susie, I'm so sorry the pain has been so bad. I hope it eases up a little now.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and Tink. I hope this is soon just a bad memory for you and your Tink.

Blessings and hugs,

Sheilagh

SophieRose · 05-31-2008, 06:35 PM

I spoke with Susie a few days ago, and she is still having a "tough time". Her biggest concern was not posting and thanking everyone for their kindness either with posting, cards and gifts. I simply told her that we all understood and, when she is able, Susie will post a picture of her treasures.

Tink is slowly improving and the prognosis looks very positive. Dear Susie needs to be relieved of the pain in her back, so she can rest and heal.

Warmly, Deborah
