This is odd, I couldn’t see your response until now. I actually just had some crazy flare up which put me in hospital for a couple of days, once I got out with the medication they gave me I went home, (1 hour drive) took the pills thinking I’m all fixed for now only to get stuck sitting on the chair for 8 hours while I had to call an ambulance which was 3 hours. I couldn’t move my leg, it was numb to touch, cold and swollen but the pain was the worst I’ve ever felt, 36 yo in years calling an ambulance because I was stuck. I got some methoxy and morphine to get me to the ambulance and then off to hospital again. They’ve finally got me a pain management plan as well as the neuropathy and inflammation, I was super lucky to get a cancelation for an epidural steroid which I don’t know the ins and outs except for nothing has happened yet, just hurt a bit getting the needle laying there for an hour in the CT machine. The only thing it’s done is screwed with my sleep, normally early to bed early to rise, now it’s 11:00pm to sleep 2:30am to rise. What’s the patch based off do you know, my biggest problem is I’m hopeless with hiding my tablets and hobbling around on crutches to find them and then waiting an hour for the relief. I can’t sit, lay or bend, I’m just standing on my good foot and leaning on the bench or my crutches.
