Donna Wildwood 288 Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 Not normally one for prescription meds if i can help it, but with my back f****d as it is I had to admit defeat and go see the docs with it. 3 fused vertebre (how do you spell it???) and sciatica. However he also gave me naproxen and codiene dihydroclosomethingorother. OH MY GODS I can see why your only allowed them for a few days at a time! Pink and fluffy here I come. Gone from being in agony, to space cadet in 1/2 hour! Hopefully it'll wear off soon and I can get stuff done! lol! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I remember when I 1st hurt my back in 82, in them days it was bed rest with pain killers , I think I took distilgesic or somting like that , went to bed and woke up seeing spiders as big as kittens crawling on the floor by my bed lol, my old man came up stairs heard my shouting and said no more of them feckin pain killers , he though I was on LSD so that was the end of them lol 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Donna Wildwood 288 Posted April 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 Well I'm back! Bloody hell these things work! Doc said to keep as active as possible, me an the dog have been walking miles! It's fab, I never realised how much pain I was in and how limiting it was till it stopped! I m hoping that now I can get out and bout exercising properly again, the pain should stay away after the meds have stopped On side note, the Cuckoo has been calling non stop and I have heard the Bitterns booming at last! YAY! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
