HI Belinda, Good Morning!
I just wanted to say to be careful taking so much Ibuprofen. I have Barrett's Esophagus from taking major amounts of it before my back surgery. I lived on that stuff and it slowly ate away at my esophagus.
I hope your pain meds are helping with your pain today. I know how rough it is. I have bad days and not so bad days. PN isn't easy to live with!

Belinda.
I just PM'd you something called
A Letter to Normals From One in Chronic Pain:
(I also placed it in the 'stickies' above)
It may help for you to print it out, and give it to those near to you.
Its been passed around for at least 5 years that I'm aware of,
and I'm passing it on to you

Bob,
Thank you so much for the letter......I have a few people I will be sending that too....OMG...it so touches on everything that you want to say but know they won't hear. That letter might even shame a few of them, in a good way!
