@liam1955, Can I ask if you ever suffered real bad pain after breaking the Vertebrae in your Lumbar region?? I was with an extremely nice Podiatrist just after I saw that Doctor and she suggested I get my Spine looked at again. I really did damage my back badly back in 1983-84. I crushed 2 of...

Yes @liam1955, I have only been recently diagnosed with Type 2. 3 years ago I had a Heart scare and ended up being put on Simvastatin at the hospital and then changed a week later to Atorvastatin. After 9 months of Hell on Atorvastatin I stopped it altogether. I went back to my GP who poo poohed...

Jesus @liam1955, you are another member I have found on here pretty quickly that has been through the Mill regarding your experience with Pain and all the drugs and complications that can arise from that. I have been pretty unwell for the last 3-4 years but never for a...

Jesus Mike you seem to have been through the Mill...the Mill where I find myself at the moment. I am definitely with you that some people DO NOT TOLERATE them & I'm beginning to believe I fall into that Cat along with you. Man the time I went through on Atorvastatin was the worst year of my life...

I am feeling optimistic Alzebra the more I read of your past & present post LOL >.< I guess I am going through a very similar awakening to the nitty gritty bits of Diabetes & the painful or itchy parts that go along with it. I genuinely feel I can beat this back to a manageable form cuz I...

I sincerely hope you are on the way up out of the pain department Liam. You have got off a drug that so many struggle with, i.e. Tramadol. I have been taking another strong Opiate, Dihydracodeine 60mg SR & Naproxene 500mg. I severely damaged my Lumbar region as a kid at 16, fracturing 6...

God love you, there is nothing worse than watching your child go through this. Trying to be strong for her and then your own health can trip you up. Be truly good to yourself and find a quiet spot daily to just sit and breath. None of us really breath properly any longer. You could Meditate if...

They have upped her Tegretol to 600mg morning & 4 at night!! High dose now and Neurologist told us on Monday that she can go up to something as high as 1600mg at a time! It is a good drug for that kind of pain alright and Paula, my wife, has had alot of trouble with the central nervous...

I have lost almost 3 stone Mike over the past year & a half...I am 5'8" & 14 stone now. Yes I have been given another Statin called Simvastatin after I almost died on Atorvastatin!! I swear that drug almost finished me off. Half an hour after taking it before bed time I would be gushing sweat...

God Love you Alzebra, suffering that kind of pain. It seems like you have been through the Mill regarding Pain meds. I have not been referred yet to a Pain Specialist although I have an appointment with my GP next week. He has just started in our Surgery and looks as old as my son lol...Just a...

Hi everyone, my name is Charlie & Yes you have guessed it, I am a Newbie to Type 2 diabetes, although I was feeling terrible for the last 3 years and put it down to an old back injury I had as a kid. I had broken 6 vertebra in my spine at 16 and was told I would have pain with this in later...
