b*stard cramp and back pain.......tis getting me down now[sad]

[Psychomum5]

sorry, in need of a moan as I am utterly fucked off with being in constant pain!

since my car accident last october, and the fact that I had already been in one the previous may (god, it's been 2yrs almost now), I have been in pain with my lower back, hips and legs......every day.

I am having physio, and also waiting for CBT therapy for driving phobia, and take co-codomol almost daily, plus quinine as I am suffering from cramp every day too, but it has worn me down and for the last week or so I have to say, I feel bloody dpressed about it.

why won;t the pain go, why can;t it be fixed???

the physio says I have good movemnet, but then, I make sure I do as I swear this isn;t going to beat me as I am very active nromally, but I can;t manage anymore

MY BACK HURTS, MY LEGS HURT.....

I know that there are many out there 100x worse than me, but tonight, I feel sorry for myself and cannot seem to raise myself out of it.

tiredness isn;t helping, nor is PMT, nor is DH, as I donlt want to let on how much it gts to me as he is so fab he doesn;t want to hear it constantly, so.....MN gets me sobbing!!

sorry.....altho I do feel better now for my rant.

It's ok to feel sorry for yourself now and then.

Chin up, but only when you have had a good wallow.

HTH

Oh poor you! I've had back pain this whole year which is now down my legs and I send you love and sympathy. Mine not a patch on yours though!
YOU are one amazing person - I have seen how you help other people on here - you are magical. I hope someone comes along soon who can help you.

Meanwhile, hugs (if you do them).

thankyou.

I know it isn;t fair to feel sorry for myself....I am not helping myself like this, but wallowing does help as I get it out and then pick up and carry on.

thanks for the reply, helps to know I am not ignored

I can do as well.

Onwards and upwards

littlewoder.....thankyou, and thankyou for the 'magical' comment...it helps.

and yes, hugs are gratefully recieved

Can you take anti-inflammatories, whatchacallum, brufen ?

And have a think about going back to the docs, explain how your injuries are getting you down.

There may be other things available ?

I've tried this tapping technique for chronic pain and it really helped - weird as it is!
I was told about it by a GP.

Its called emotional freedom techniques here's the link here

Hope this helps!

yes I do actually....was on volterol for a long time, now have naproxim for the really bad days, but I find that then I feel dizzy and can;t drive, and worry about that with regards to the kiddies!!!

am thinking a trip to the docs is in order...tis getting silly as I struggle on determined that it won't get me down (and on the most part, it doens;t....being busy helps me ignore it to a cetain degree IYGWIM), but these last two weeks (well, 6wks actually counting the constant cramp I now have), have just got to me more than normal.

I was so hoping I think for releif, plus it is coming up 2yrs since the first accident and I am now closer to closure (still sorting the compensation). all in my favour (he hit me, as did the second twunt), but still......it is annoying!

zazen....looks intriging....acupunture has helped in the past, but finances prevent me having more ATM

I will read better tomorrow when less tired, but thankyou for the link

Hope you get sorted soon, PM

thanks boys.....

I'll be fine, I normally am, I just need to moan to get myself out of it IYGWIM.

there is only so much DH can take, and me moaning when he has a PMT hell-on-earth from me, DD1 and DD2, would just push him over the edge, or even, push him into pushing ME over the edge.....of the window sill....!
