You are in a pickle at the moment aren't you? A&E is not often an ideal solution as they don't know you as an individual, or the medical history, so of course they may prescribe the wrong meds and you have to be very careful with all the possible inter-actions don't you? Pain is very much a fact of life for so many of us - there is no easy or straightforward answer to it. I hope you are feeling a little better today. DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0

That's what we all have to do, Trayce, and it isn't easy at times. It must be very hard right now for both you and your husband. I hope things improve soon.If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

Can't help with the pain, so just sending my best wishes and hoping you have a better day tomorrow. Have you got any friends or neighbours who could pop in for a chat over a cup of tea. I always find this helps me when I'm having a bad day.

If your in that much pain then change your doctor to one that understands,
I take co-codomol naproxen and diazepam on really bad days.
My whole spine is o/a and i have fibromyalgia so i know how you feel,
