Such a horrible, throbbing pain that doesn't quit..takes your breath away, interrupts everything you do, including sleep. The one thing I wonder about this med is that my pain went away on its own, so what if this med agreed with me, took my pain away, do you just keep on taking this med?...forever? How do you know if it would have gone away on its own? Just wondering...for those of you who take this regularly.
I noticed that my arm (with a band-like sensation) get worse as the med wears off...and now it hurts. But other symptoms...like the incessant itchiness and tingling...has lessened when the med is in full effect. I guess it's a give/take situation.
