Hi everyone,
I am in so much pain today. I just need some support. I left work and went to emergency room today with pain between shoulder blades, chest pain, and my face went numb on left side, also had pain in left ear. My lower back is killing me. I thought I was having a heart attack. Thank God it wasn't my heart! Just that famous old chostochondritis again. But this time its alot worse. Doctor gave me a shot of tramadol and gave me a precription of muscle relaxers. I'm still in alot of pain. He also put me out of work tomorrow. Thank God! I'm a mechanic and have to do alot of physical work and its killing me. I put in 110 hours in two weeks, probably what set my lupus and fibro off. I am on plaquenil, celebrex, flexeril, and ultram. But the pain won't let up tonight. Just needed to vent!! :sad: Been really depressed, trying to fight off pain and work. Anyone else have this costochondritis and what did you take for it? I would appreciate any help I can get.
:wacko:Thanks,
Diane
