I'm sore and I'm miserable

[woollyminded]

I fractured my collarbone and bashed up my shoulder six weeks ago. Dr and physio agree that I'm not recovering well, I haven't got the range of movement that I should have by now. I'm taking paracetamol and naproxen but I'm sore all the time, can't get comfy, not sleeping well and I am MISERABLE.

Feeling really sorry for myself.

Anyone done this? How long until you started feeling better?

Shoulders are complicated, I know that much though I haven't had your type of injury.

Thanks for replying ragged. Yeah, I didn't appreciate my shoulders before this

Sorry hunny I know a bit about what you're going through. I've dislocated my shoulder 3 times (always the left) and every now and then I can feel my collarbone push out and click back in. If the paracetamol and naproxen aren't working that well could you maybe ask your doctor to prescribe something a bit stronger until it heals? Or have you tried over the counter cocodamol?

Yes I think I need some different pain relief. I had codeine at the beginning but felt it didn't agree with me. But that was back when I thought this would be a more temporary problem.

I have just had a big fight with my partner. He's tired, having to do everything and I snapped at him over something stupid. I knew w there a people with much bigger hea

You know, I'm sorry, I'm going to leave this now. I'm just being pathetic thanks for the the responses,

Ok hun just hang in there. Hope things get better for you soon. Would just make an appointment with your gp to see about pain relief. Sorry about the fight with your partner. Good luck hun xx
