Is there enough xanax to go around?
I could use a Xanax or 2! I live with 24/7 neuropathic pain; often one part of my body (sometimes a couple) will hurt more than other parts. I have a contracture in my left hand from the MS so this is a frequent site of intense pain but it has never lasted more than one day. About 36 hours ago the pain intensified in my left arm & hand and just WILL NOT QUIT. I am ready to put my head thru a wall. Took some Vicodin I had left from when I had a tooth pulled NO RELIEF. Was looking for something in a drawer found some NORCO from when I injured my neck last year NO RELIEF. I have had about 6 hours sleep in the last 36 hours because of the pain. ANY SUGGESTIONS BESIDES AMPUTATING THE ARM?
As for the SNIFFER mine works over time as well. I have small spray bottles with Febreeze all over my room, in the closet, in the bathroom & I instruct everyone to smell often & generously. That smell DOES NOT bother me but certain smells are MORE INTENSE for me than others. My puppy dog (she is a Service Dog but still my baby) is OFTEN the "victim" of my sniffer. I am always saying "Esperanza where were you, you stink" then it is in the bathtub. She HATES BATHS but is so well trained that she does whatever I ask. I get in the tub/ shower & sit in my shower chair then instruct her to join me. I can either get her to sit on my lap or in front of me for easy sudsing & rinsing. I keep a towel within arms reach & when we are all done I dry her from my shower chair then instruct her to get out of the tub herself. It IS NOT unusual for her to have a bath once or twice a week. I know that dogs are not supposed to be bathed that often but I CAN'T STAND THE SMELL. I LOVE HER TO DEATH but I OFTEN feel she has an overabundance of......... well "doggy smell".
