Call your dr. to see if you can get in any earlier. Explain to them what is going on and what you have done to try to relieve the pain.

If the pain is severe enough, which it sounds like it is, go to the ER. They can give you something for the pain as well as to check for a gallbladder issue (which from your description doesn't quite fit but you never know). Explain to the ER what you have done to try to relieve the pain as well as what the chiro thinks may be going on. Do your best to let them know how much pain you are in and try to be calm and firm about it. Tell them that it is not anxiety and that you are in pain.

Unfortunately, it seems ER dr don't like to treat MS patients. They always tend to refer you back to your neurologists. I don't know why that is. There is only 1 ER in my town that I will go to with MS stuff and that is because I know them and worked with them for years. They know I hate going in as a patient. So, I can understand you being reluctant to go BUT finding out the root of the problem and getting treated is really important for you right now. The 13th is a long way off when you are dealing with the kind of pain and amount of pain you are dealing with right now.

And yes, I have had that kind of pain with the hug before and it is not fun at all. It is crazy-making pain where you are just out of your head in pain. I get the dizziness as well as naseous when the pain gets that bad. This is when I know I need to call the dr.

Please let us know how you are doing and what you decide to do. In the meantime, gentle 's for you.
