Hi joed

Well done, it sounds like you are a braver person than me! I genuinely hope that you can get a wonderful sleep tonight and wake up tomorrow feeling really good!

I will keep my fingers crossed for you, and please keep us up to date with how you are getting on with this?

All my hopes and dreams for you

Hi Joanne

Sorry to hear about your upsetting experience on your journey to your hospital, hope you have calmed down a little now, it does indeed shake you up!

I hope/pray that the Lidocaine Infusion works for your pain. I hope you don"t mind me asking but I have been on Lidocaine Patches for many years, I use on the worse effected areas of pain but I have never heard of Infusions before?

Please could you kindly let me know how you get on with them? I sincerely hope they help your pain & give you much relief from insidious pain that comes with Fibro?

I am currently on Slow Release Morphine & Oral Morphine, Plus the Lidocaine Patches, plus Pregablin & lots of other Medication but still in Chronic Widespread Pain! I finally shut my eyes @ 5.30am today due to pain preventing me from sleeping!

So I would be extremely grateful for any feed-back you could kindly give me? Please feel free to PM me if you wish to?

Good Luck

Many thanks

Sending you positive, healing, soothing energies
