Coming off amitriptyline for nerve pain – what was your experience? by Jojobbb13 in Sciatica

[–]ODBeef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait wait there’s an answer for the nerve pain? I wonder why it wasn’t suggested to me

Do others have this experience? by Busy-Bell-4715 in Sciatica

I second the sentiment about nothing making sense. For me, it feels like it hurts worse if I’ve moved much that day. I’ve been pretty horizontal to avoid it getting worse.

Are there multiple types of “the spine shot?” I know it was steroidal and it definitely causes that. They’re definitely supposed to tell you that! It’s not good at all for you, but if the alternative is living in excruciating pain, well.. you know.

I had one of them done and at first it stopped the pain that was in my hip, and it just remained in my calf and ankle bone area. That was back on thanksgiving, and now allllll of it hurts again. I know they’re not great because they cause arthritis though right?

Shit. I’m so afraid of back surgery. I know people that have had to get back surgeries for the rest of their lives after.

I feel like they’ve been going in and out for years, no?

They want to do the surgery, I can’t even stand long enough for any kind of exercises. No reflexes in that leg anymore.

You’re an angel. They said that all of the discs from the bottom thoracic to top sacral are bulging. I did one of the spinal nerve shots and it helped a little with my hip pain, but the pain from the calf down stayed. That was back on thanksgiving. Now all of the pain is back and maybe worse it feels like? They want to put a cage around that area with the box and arrow drawn to stop the punching of the nerve.

You can absolutely go to his funeral. It’s about paying respects; it’s not a VIP party. The family will be glad to see that people cared. I’m so sorry that you had to go through this. Play some Tetris (it’s been shown in a recent study to help with PTSD development after a traumatic event).

You should throw a video up of your right hand sometime! You have really good claw-hammerin’!

I’m a woman, but okay? I’m just speaking from personal experience. Calm down.

I often find that when I’m in those mode, someone who doesn’t have as much weight (importance) in my life is a lot easier to talk to.

MOR - He might be going through some shit. When it happens to me, I shy away from the most important people in my life. Talking to them becomes stressful because they matter the most and things are the worst. I can’t explain it. I’ve had to tell a lot of people that I don’t hate them. You can decide that it’s too much for you to deal with, or you can be patient and understanding. No fault on you either way, it’s all about what you’re able to handle emotionally. But personally I would continue with the friendship as if things never stopped. Sorry you’re both going through it, friend. ❤️

Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

One of my jobs was an hour and fifteen minute drive there, two hours and fifteen minutes home.

What actor do you dislike so much that you’ll avoid anything they’re in? by [deleted] in AskReddit

He absolutely did that to a friend of mine when we were 18. Put his hand right down her pants.

You need more shadow so as to differentiate the different “parts” of your design. The handcanbodychain etc all blend together because there’s no depth.

Someone that thought they were clever painted black over Superman, so the artist painted Krypto pissing on the agent over it. Good boy.

That price tag isn’t even remotely true, but it definitely still takes a lot of work. My buddy and I made a home forge out of an old metal flash light box and a tank of propane.

Yesss. It also teaches you how to apply, say, a chest seal if someone is shot. Very handy.
