And then it comes back with a vengeance.....I'm sure you all know how that is. The pain free days are few and far between, I am still waiting to see the Neurologist and am trying to get into a "pain" clinic. I really need something stronger than Tramadol when I have my normal daily spikes. and definitely when I have my bad days!! I DID get more sleep last night thank goodness, my arm had calmed down from the night before, but I could feel it starting to gear back up. so I slapped a Lidocaine patch on before it got too bad......ahhhh sweet sleep! lol I hope you feel better soon!
Yay for sleep! I am very happy for you! I do know about those pain free days that are just a tease. lol A couple days ago my pain was down to like a 5 and I was totally thinking maybe it is getting better and possibly going away, but then it really turned out to just be a fake out! lol The last two days it has so come back with a vengeance! I think it is worse than before. My whole leg feels like my ankle did, which sucks because the burning is up into my hip joint and left back side. I did get in to see my neurologist today but she can't give me narcotics because of her office policies, but she thinks I should be on them. So I have to hope my primary doctor will, or that I can figure out a way to get off them. Which is my real goal. I would love to get off them. I really don't like taking them. So we are going to try uping my Lyrica and using muscle relaxers. Fingers crossed here!! Good luck to you, and like always I hope you feel better!!
