Feeling defeated tonight.

Postby woundedspirit » 22 Aug 2014, 22:39

It's raining...raining in my heart. Can someone let me off this merry-go-round???? Yes, I am losing it tonight.

:needguh:

Oh hark, sleep cometh as a sweet amnesia.
Silent gift of pause.
Release me not for many hours,
but only for great cause.

Good night. After this brief absence from my consciousness temporarily allowing me to forget the fissures, I should be able to resume the battle tomorrow. At least this is my prayer.

OMB I didn't mean to make you teary, you have enough to deal with right now. I had had a really good month, enough where I started believing again that I may heal without flap surgery. Then 3 days ago a huge set back again. I have been in so much pain for 3 days, just like at square one again. So disheartening. It was feeling overwhelming last night and those are the times I somehow find strength here. Thank you both for caring. Thank you for the hugs. They were needed. Still rather sad but doing better. I will feel stronger when I get this pain under better control again.

So sorry, Woundedspirit.
I hope you found some healing in sleep.

:smilyhug:
Nifedipine/lidocaine, no help
Diltiazem, effective, but caused major rash
Nitroglycerine, effective.
Topical estrogen for final healing.
Gentle heat to bottom - pain relief, muscle relaxant
Kondremul mineral oil
Time - lots of time.
Status - Healed!
