Thank you. It's so true though as I sit here crying reading everyones responses and likes. You all do help me. I'm at the hospital now hooked up to my 6th lidocaine infusion, after taking my hydrocodone for comfort and pain relief. I hate taking a narcotic! I'm so against it. I've never drank, smoked or done drugs and here I sit going through the motions with lidocaine that doesn't help this far, just trying to reduce the hydro.

It was such a hard weekend...my daughter's graduation from high school party. I live for my kids and these moments and powered through so much. It didn't kill me but boy oh boy did it all hit me super hard. I had so much pain and moments of removal from the party due to dizziness, over heating, palpitations, and shortness of breath, along with migraine mid day which thankfully Cambia aborts. I just really miss life as it used to be.

I am so sorry you are going through so much.
Please do not lump the pain meds together with alcohol and 'drugs'.
What you are taking is a medicine to help you with an illness.
These are not 'drugs' you use to get high.
Big difference!
I hope that you will be able to find comfort, soon/!
