Hi J!!
Good to hear from you!
I haven't had any more toe pain since the other night when it woke me up. I hope it doesn't return, ever! It was awful!!
As for the pain, for some reason, unknown to me! Traumeel is helping with my pain in a big way! It's an homeopathic medication for anti inflammation and it's really helping with the nerve pain! I just hope it continues because Lord knows, I've tried everything else out there!
I'm very tired of with dealing with doctors, receptionists, pharmacists...you name it! It's the pits! My husband says he never thought Pharmacists would know him by his first name....because we're in there so often!! LOL
Take care J! Thinking of you!!! Roxie

And, YES! some of those pain waves can and do take your breathe away! WHOOO! IF I'd gotten a dollar for every 'breathtaking event'? I'd be RICH!
Sooo, we go on, beat our heads against the walls until the pain stops or get hallucinations from meds. AND THE PAIN, STILL isn't gone? We do what each of us must to be and stay sane during this insane pain.
Any peculiar stressor can help ignite these pains? Such as insurance Issues? [Trust me there, I got a heap of them?]or doctor problems you name it.
Just tell yourself? Don't need this crud... will deal with varied problems in their own time ON MY SCHEDULE! Doctors tho? Durn, the training involved in them is enormous!
Hugs and good things good person! - j
