I am on my second pain pump so my normal is 4-6 on good days. Before the first pump I was a 10+ daily with lots of oral medications. Best decision I made was a pain pump πŸ™ Don’t due any other pain medication except once in a while ibuprofen or Tylenol. Nice being off all the drugs πŸ™πŸ‘πŸ€žπŸ˜‰πŸ€— Ken 🐾🐾

I'm sorry you are having so much trouble. It must be in the air. I've had issues that are making me miserable & that seem to activate MS flairs for the past 2 months. My MS pain level is about 1-2 unless there is a flair then it goes up at times to 6-7. My overall pain level is at a constant10 from back & knee pain. I hope you start feeling better soon!

My pain level is pretty constant at an 8 or 9, but it has been for so long that I just live with it! Meds help for about an hour. Sorry you are hurting, hopefully you feel better!

I'm sorry to hear you're in so much pain.

As for me, I get a bit of pain in my feet but it's not too bad.

Fortunately it's at a zero for me. My wife was in pain after surgery once and the Anestheologist asked her to rate her pain as a "9 you'd want to shoot yourself and if a 10 you'd want to shoot me." I have been in pain before and I realize that it can be overwhelming. I hope your pain ends soon.

My wife who has MS has pain but not necessarily MS pain, more like lower back and joint pain. What has really helped her is methadone, 5mg twice a day which is a low dose. Have the doctor write β€œfor pain” on the prescription.. good luck. I know pain can be debilitating.

I broke mine in 1982 and you’re so right. I live at a constant 8-9 and that’s with a fentanyl patch and 30 mg of oxycodone every 4 hrs. Since my surgery last August it hasn’t let up for a minute.

I live at a 6 and take tramadol as needed for it. Any kind of new pain can push me over the edge tho! πŸ˜”πŸ˜­ How are you doing my friend? πŸ€—πŸ’•πŸŒ

Hi ya Jes. I’m still stumbling along but I can keep on going as long as my Modafinil last every day.πŸ€ͺπŸ˜›. Still hurting day and night. I’ve grown immune to my meds but they help for a little while so I keep taking.

I start some new physical therapy July 7 th. My home therapy group said I needed to be where they had some machines to progress any further. Without my rollator I’m like a new born calf. If this pt can get me standing up straight and at least walking with a cane I’ll be satisfied.

Now how are you doing now that you’re out of the hospital? Don’t it feel good to be home?😁😁
