Dw has got bad pain in her arm and I'm not sure if I'm doing the right thing about it
Since Saturday, she's had intermittent shooting pains. It started as mild and now she is having bouts of being okay but then pain every hour or so where she's panting, squirming and making the same noises I did in labour
On Monday, gp never called back, we went to pharmacy who gave mild cocodomol.
Tuesday gp called back recommended physio and gave a self referral link. Came home to her rolling in pain despite beng on the max of medication so trundled off to a+e. A+e gave a stronger dose of cocodomol
They put it down to a trapped nerve from a car crash a few months ago. Recommended physio
Now despite the higher dose of cocodomol she's still crying out, crying in pain etc.
Spoke to gp, who couldn't speak to her today. Spoke to 111 who said they will get an out of hour doc to call (it's been 12+ hours since original call)
Would you be going back to a+e?
It feels like everyone is saying it's par for the course and whiplash so just get routine physio but watching her wake up whimpering, and making such awful noises. When it's bad she can't talk etc.
I feel completely useless
