Hello ladies. As this week has gone on I am less and less able to function in the morning. I am taking 70 MST x 2, maxparacetamol an 1 dexamethasone. I'm drinking plenty. I have an overnight catheter and use a flip flo during the day. From being relatively OK last week I am at the end of my tether.
Hi
I really feel for you, no advice but sending lots of hugs and best wishes.
Hope the doctors can do something for the pain for you

Hi Karen
So, so sorry to read what you are going through and wish I could offer more than words of support. Sounds like you need to have a chat with your doctor/consultant to see if they can do anything to help you through this. Perhaps you may need your meds changing?
Keeping everything crossed for you and sending you lots of love & hugs.

Hi Karen,
What a total shit this disease is....I am so sorry you are in so much pain.
It's a hard balance between knocking the pain on the head and been out
of it.Do you have a pain management team?
I hope that you get something ASAP so that you can get on with making
your lovely memories with your family.
I wish I had something to say that would help....I hope that been on here
and getting things of your chest helps.I know for me it does.
Hope the sun is shining where you are.
Big virtual hug

Thanks for encouragement and support ladies. It means a lot knowing you are all out there. My family are great but they don't need to hear me whinging on all the time. We are currently in Scotland making memories, so its not all bad. I took an extra dex last night and this morning is better. I'm speaking to my pain care team on Monday so just need to manage til then. Love to you all

All you brave ladies are my inspiration. You keep me going.
