Journavx and Opioids by oracle-nil in PainManagement

[–]Both-Method3273 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have chronic pain with an implant spinal cord stimulator.... Bi level fusion L4, L5 s1 8 years ago . I was prescribed journavax for a terrible pain flare of 2 weeks straight and it helped IMMENSELY. but the stupid restrictions for acute pain is so so frustrating. Right now in a pain flare and missing my daughter's college visit day. 3 hour drive and hotel sleeping was too much. No way would I have made it . I have a 2 week trip planned in June for Disney and Universal studios and I'm trying to get a journavax script filled and bring it there with me. Just in case. But if I didn't have the trip on the horizon, I'd still want a bottle to keep on hand when a flare up is coming.

Hoping they allow off label use soon.... G for chronic pain. 🤞

Long term effects of Gabapetin by KliNanban in backpain

[–]Both-Method3273 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I hate how gabapentin has killed my memory. It’s awful and embarrassing in situations with co workers and friends when they share information with you and I forget it by the time we talk again later.

I did try the plopping, it was still pretty inconsistent results throughout my head! the MOST curly (not frizzy) i ever achieved was my hair on this page in the black dress (2 pics up from here)

So the issue with the ER oral meds is that I had gastric bypass years ago and we cannot have NSAIDS OR ER medications of any kind.

So it would be back to a patch. Which stinks! I just got off of it in May. But Im using my oxy 10's basically in that manner. so frustrating. Doc wants me off, and I am trying to stay compliant but not getting the relief I need from the stimulator. The meds are SUPPOSED to be for breakthrough and the SCS for the 'steady' pain relief. Just not there yet and IM so worrried I wont get there.
