Hello folks, when I went on my search to find out why I was hurting
so much with no apparent reason, my last stop was a rheumotoligst.
We had no rheum. in the hospital where I had retired a year earlier
as an RN on the surgery floor. I had seen a family practitioner,an internist,
an osteopathic doctor. All had said it was arthritis and wanted me to
take Celebrex or one of those drugs. I refused. I finally, after a year of constant
hurting, found a rheumotoligst who did blood work, xrays and several
other test all were neg. for arthritis. Then he had me sit on the end of
the exam table and he put his hands on my upper back and pressed. I
honestly thought he had stuck a knife in my back. I came off that table
and broke out in a sweat . I tried the Elavil but stayed in a daze that did
not ease the pain. I went back to the D.O. who prescribed Ambien and
Ultram for pain. I still hurt all the time, but at least I'm not still looking
for the reason. Some of you are finding solutions that makes your life
easier. Whatever works for you, that's the things to do. My prayers are
with you all as you cross my mind each day.
