you certainly been through it it girl, and yes I relate to all that, it does settle down. I've been sober 3 years too (we should both be proud of that) In bed you could try a cold pad that you get for dogs, that should help on a night. I'm surprised you havent mention been on water tablets for the swelling. I also take senna every night. It does get better honest

Hi Faithfull,

Sorry to hear things aren't going well for you. I do wish I knew of something that could ease the itching. Senna has worked for my husband, in the past, and so has Miralax.

Best wishes to you, will be thinking of you.

I hope things get better. We are doing fairly well. My husband seems to be getting more strength and is up and about doing yard work and doesn't seem to get tired as quickly and he is doing exercises to help his back pain. Thank you for asking.

Wishing you better days.

Mary
