Default What do you do when your pain is off the scale?

Hi Guys,

I hope yee are all well, today was a pretty horrible day for me, I didn't sleep too well last night, I was up walking the floors at all hours with spasms in my hips and just pure back pain that was truly, truly horrible. Legs thankfully are still behaving thanks to the Stim. I had the stim turned up for the back but that became more uncomfortable that any help.

My question is, is there something you do to help you cope when your pain is particularly bad, so bad that getting up out of bed that day is enough and you've taken all the pain meds that you can take. A day when normal just doesn't even have a chance of happening.

Do you just deal with it and pray to God that he takes it away soon or what?

I'd love to know and i'd love to hear your ideas.

Plse PM me if you'd rather not share on the public forum.

thanks

Sophie
