So much pain I want to throw up!

With my bone surgery in my leg they said up to 800 mg ( 4 200's or one 800) every 6 hours. Ask them about it. I am not sure if it was because it was bone surgery or what. I dont remember much though- I slept.. lol..
I am glad you had a little better night. That is painful! My husband has bouts with this.

I'm sorry to hear that you're in so much pain. I can relate because I injured myself when I was painting. I also hurt my left shoulder and my whole left arm also hurts. My right shoulder is only slightly hurt. I also have Kaiser and went to the doctor and to physical therapy about 5 times. I was on pain meds for a little while but then even they didn't help. The physical therapy didn't seem to help me either so I decided to go get a professional massage.

I got a regular massage which really seemed to help me because it helped with my circulation. I then decided to have a deep tissue massage but this didn't help very much. This has been going on since August and I've just learned to live with the pain. It's much worse at night. It sure does suck getting old.

I hope that the physical therapy will be able to help you and you won't have to suffer with the pain like me. Please take care. I saw a commercial about a product that's supposed to help you with pain. There are also several websites about it. I'm still kind of skeptical though but have considered ordering it. It's called light relief and here's the website: light relief.

Sorry to hear you've been feeling so lousy.I hope that between the
motrin & the therapy you can get this pain under control soon.

Well the physical therapist feel that it is for sure bursitis. He suggested I get a cortizone shot, I have a call into my physican to get this.

He gave me some excercizes to do to help but there isn't a whole lot that can be done. I guess the bursa gets inflammed and it needs to calm down, apparantly icing it will help...which doesn't feel good at all.
