Now this may be my herniated disc but I feel as if the femur is pushing down hard on to the rear of my bottom. Unable to move about it is really HORRID I am up to the max with pain killers so not sure the next step I suppose I can try the six pillow trick in bed now then it is not naughty - oh disapointment sorry - place four in stack behind you and two like a v upside down against pillows in you get sitting up another pillow under legs and wait.............
Now we do near to design new expletives I have always found Fur Trees useful or Blooming any one else please add surgestions.
I managed three hours asleep last night so brain may need more

i have had this for over a week.i woke up saturday(week and half ago)in most excruciating pain in my lower back,left buttock and leg and knee.I could not sit down even on the toilet.i used several expletives-none which i can print- .hot and cold compresses and i htink the microwave was in use all day long to heat wheat bags.was told it was sciatica or is it just another fibro thing?apart from walking my dogs which i could just about do i lay in bed as i couldnt sit down.after sitting ina car al day friday i wasnt able to get out of it.think the doctors ahve got some explainign to do-a private ultrasound scan showed i had gallstones and my dr refused to do any more scans six months ago!!
Sorry to hear you are having a bad time also (VG is as well). Amazed at your choice of expletive, at least it was in capitals so gave a bit more power to it, Cant quite get the right feeling by saying sugar puffs as an expletive, no just doesn't do it, ah well to each their own.
Glad you explained about the pillows as I have tried that ad all it did for me was drop me on the floor (come to think about it, it was probably my wife doing it because she thought I was going to do something else with the pillows)
Sorry to hear about your pains also. I remember you having problems with gall stones a while ago and wondered how you got on as I have not seen that post and if you have that still you must be in a real poorly way. Hope you feel a bit better soon.
When I submitted my last comment I was quite surprised to see yours before mine but then I realised how long it takes me to type these days.
Pillows under feet pillows under arms poor Oh is grabbing on for life for edge of bed lol
Think kingsize will be moving in soon.

My daughter always says flip when she is annoyed or hells bell and eleohant tails she says by the time she finishes saying it she has normally brought herself into control
I was taught as a child never to use bad words as women were not bred to swear I still flinch in a pub or public place when I hear ladies swearing badly and horror of horrors their kids swearing back at them wow I woukd have had crushed chillies in mouth lol
I moved here from Zimbabwe four years ago and to this day you wont find teenagers smoking in front of their parents or using bad words we know they use them but as a sign of respect they do not use them in front of us its called having a modem of control respect breeds respect
We still believe a short smart smack sorts out a lot of cheek
I am not the prude I sound like and keep my opinions to myself as each person has their own way of coping with life
oh I have rambled on again the keyboard and I seem to have a love affair going

If you find a comfortable piosition write it in indelable ink in your mind and use it again soft hugz petal
Have you tried trigger point massage? A lot of people with fibromyalgia have Mysofascial Pain Syndrome (maybe three quarters) and trigger point massage can relieve pain rapidly - I taught myself from the book by Clair Davies called Trigger Point Therapy Workbook, you look for the area of pain in the book and then it tells you how to put pressure on the trigger point that is causing the pain, I can cope with almost all pain this way without any medication. The fibro causes the muscles to knot up, its excruciating enough to make you weep and not be able to do anything, but if you put pressure on the place on the muscle where the knot is, you can massage the knot away and with it the pain - sometimes I have relieved really horrendous pain in five minutes, other times it takes a few days to work on it. The Trigger Point may be a long way from the pain - for example, I had excruciating pain on the bottom of my foot and the trigger point was in my calf, so you need the book to tell you how to do it. I don't know why pain clinics don't teach this because it is really amazing, I couldn't believe it when it actually worked for me, now I do it regularly.
