    My back hurts SO bad that I cant move and I am crying

    I cant even get up without screaming in pain. I dont know if alot of you know, but in 1994 I was shot in the back during a robbery at a gas station I was working at., and I have had severe problems since then. I am 31 and I feel like I am 80. I cant sit down and I cant stand up. I cant even lay down. I am afraid to get in the tub, I am afraid that I will not be able to get back out. It started with a dull ache, and I decided to lay down. Well I woke up in AGONY. It is in my lower back and my front pelvic area, and it is radiating down my legs. I called the dr ealier for pain meds, but the nurse called me at closing time and left a message for me to call back in the morning after 10. ALOT of good that does me. I am going to send my boyfriend to Walmart after our DD goes to bed to get me some pain meds. Anyone reccommend anything strong? I was thinking about Doans but I dont know how well that works. I cant take anti inflammatories. I am in so much pain, that I am ready to take anything to make this stop. I dont want to drag 2 year old DD to the ER this late at night. I dont think I could sit in those chairs or wheelchairs for long anyhow.

    And I called the dentist yesterday. I have a few teeth that are killing me, and I told the receptionist this, and she STILL said I couldnt get in till mid august.

    I hope that @!$#$# that shot me rots in hell and dies a slow death. I have to live with this pain while he is out of prison robbing and shooting other people. I never wish that kind of things on people normally, but it ticks me off that he only served part of his sentence. With all the stuff he did, his prison time was like 40 years. He also killed someone else before he shot me. Nice huh? The let the %$#@#$ out and he did it again!!! then after he was let out from shooting me, they arrested him in the involvement for his brothers shooting death... He is out now. I dont know about this so called justice system

    don't know if you are aware of this but you may well qualify to have a home health aide come in to help out. i would call you local dss (public health) and ask about getting an aide and let them know what is up etc. perhaps they can help.

    Thank you very much. My boyfriend and I live together so he is here when he isnt working. This only happens every once in a while. He just went to walmart to go get me something till I can get ahold of the dr again tomorrow.

    I hope whatever he gets works. It is REALLY starting to hurt again. I have taken tylenol and muscle relaxers about 2 and a half hours ago and they didnt help much at all and they wore off. When I go back to the dr, I am going to see if she can refer me to a back specialist. This is for the birds. I dont know if some of the bullet fragments migrated. or the one near my spine is on a nerve which is most likely what it is. I have a feeling I am going to end up in a wheel chair soon, and I am getting jacked around by SSI disabillity. It has been going on 2 years since the last time I tried to get it. They are in the process of setting up a hearing to determine if I get it. My lawyer said it could be the end of this year till they set one up. WHY the heck does it take so long????? We are barely scraping by. We dont have any food in the house, and we are spending money we dont have for meds for me tonight. Makes me feel guilty. I just wish I wasnt this way. I have been this way since I was 22. It is progressively getting worse. I dont know what to do. Thank you all for listening. I really appriciate it.

    I Am So Sorry You Are In So Much Pain. If, I Could Take It Away From You I Would. When Your Bf, Comes Back Home, See If He Will Help You Get In The Tub, It Sounds Like You Need Too. Have You Ever Went To A Spine Center Doctor For Your Back, You May Need To Go See One. I Hope And Pray You Feel Better After You Take The Meds.

    Have you tried using a heating pad followed by an ice pack? Are you doing any pain management with an orthopedist? You need to ask about bio feedback or accupuncture to help control the pain. I realize that you are not in a financial position to pay for this yourself but Medicaid should be able to help you out with medical care and medications.

    Talk to your doctor in the morning about getting on a program for free pain meds. Someone out there will help you out. Call United Way as well and see if they can assist.
    I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints.
