not much sleep....3 hours, maybe.....breast is killing me. am searching for the right surgeon and am getting discouraged.......it's the surgeon mindset that i keep running up against. you know, it is my body and my decision......i will a few painfree years.........
i guess i could ask for a stronger painkiller. and i may just do that. a friend is sending me something that he no longer uses and if it will help the neuropathy.....i'll be so grateful and will then get a script here. i hate being "doped" up......  just NEED some sleep. the body can't go on without the healing of sleep. i need that "down time" in the worst way. help!!!!!!!! xoxoxo pat |

i have intense neuropathic pain also. I know exactly what you are talking about. Believe it or not wellbutrin helped with my nerve pain, not totally but about 30%. Ihave trouble sleeping also, as soon as i lay down, throbbing, stabbing pains.

Faye -
What kind of surgery do you need and what kind of pain is it? Could heat, ice, or fairy dust help  Tranquility

i had breast cancer when i was 31. i had re-construction then. the FDA had approved the implants/silicone.
i've had 9 surgeries on the left and two on the right..i now have a small saline implant on the left and the right is constructed from my own tissue. the left one is developing scar tissue/adhesions and pulling the implant to the left. it hurts like hell. i want it removed and the procedure is very precise.....i'm running into surgeons who keep telling me that "they're so pretty, why do you want to remove one?"........eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. male surgeons. i'm trying to get in to see a female surgeon in San Antonio......... |

Yaza... I am so sorry.... I hope this female surgeon listens to you... if not is there anyway you can camp out at the male surgeons office and demand they take it out?
sending healing thoughts your way that you will get enough relief from pain to sleep...freewill |
