I saw the Dr yesterday and again asked him to increase the amount of the pain meds. Of course, he would not listen. I have been taking the exact amount for more than four years, and it wasn't enough even then to actually help with the pain very much at all.
O can't understand why he doesn't listen, I have been asking him every three months to let me have more and all he says is 'you look fine' but looking and being in pain are two very different things. I don't want amy more than I need.
But I would like to be able to sleep more than a hour or so before the pain wakes me up, that is, when I can even get to sleep. I would like enough relief so that I can get to the fridge and to the stove when I am hungry and be able to fix something to eat. Rather than waiting for the pain to ease up
enough for me to do that. Right now the pain is so bad I can't get up, or I would be lieing down again.
This is no way to live, in constant pain 24/7 and no relief to be had, he could give me enough pain relief to actually make a differance in the way I live, in every aspect of my day and night.
No one should have to live in pain like this, constantly--I just don't know how much longer I can go on k nowing that I don't have enough pain meds to help me at all. It wasn't enough four or five years ago, and it's now enough now.
This is not right, he thinks "YOu should be used to it by now" do we "get used" to the pain, does that mean the pain ceases to be felt? How crazy is that?
When the meds are there and very easy for him to write a script that could change my life and let me have some quality of life, even if it's just a little less pain.
