Now that the Ibuprofens have eased me I think I can finally crawl my as* into the tub. The pain is doable now, but a bath would prob make it a helluva lot better. Thanks to all.
Hot bath!!! Works wonderfully and sooths your body. Try it.

Jac....Naprosyn may just work for you yet. It takes about 3 weeks to get into your system and begin to work, so maybe you should try it again and give the time it needs to begin working for you.
Yeah, I know thanks, that's why I'm taking what I am, no more. You can get it prescription at 1000mg even, but I'm pushing it now. I'm just doing all I can to get through. Last week I tried Naprosyn cause it's only one pill a day, but it did less than nothing if that's possible.
Theres nothing wrong with crying about the pain. A good cry is as good as a good laugh sometimes. You got to get that out. Right now Jacqui if there is anything you can do to help you stop thinking of it do it. Get that uzi out on your playstation and kick some a$$. Take that pain and channel it on some bad guys. You can do this,you are strong person and you know what it takes.Plus you want this real bad don't ya.
Please be careful with the Ibuprofin - It's just as bad if not worse than the tylenol. 800's every 4-6hrs is not good.

I keep dumpin' 'em in, don't wanna off myself though, so I'm taking the most I can safely. 800 mg of Ibuprofen every 4-6 hours. It's like this pain is literally a monster and I cannot kill it. I know I am tough, I feel like a jerk for whining, but sometimes even a toughy can have a bad spell.
Jacqui: you can do this honey. Have you tried any otc's to help. Maybe just enough til it passes?
This pain is awful, but I've been reading my posts, esp. from days ago, and I don't know how I'm gonna get through, but I am, I feel like I gotta. It's so exhausting isn't it to expend so much energy just trying to get by.
I am so it is sorry it is so hard right now,for you ,just try to go hour to hour we are all here for you.This will pass!!! Please know how much you bring to the CLUB ,I really enjoy your posts well maybe not this one. Hang in there sweetie it will get better!
I'm so sorry that you're having a bad day. I really think this weather ins't helping, I'm in Pittsburgh and it was so bad out today. Are you sure you don't have a sinus or bronchial infection?
I'm always laying down. I'm in PA, sleet and freezing rain. It's not that, this pain is just so bad, it's been bad, but this is ridiculous. I just barely tolerate it at all normally let alone this week, but I cannot take this, it hurts so bad to breath and the cough that developed with the chest pain is worse too. My entire rib cage and back is KILLING ME. My head is pounding, but that I'm willing to live with. I just feel done. Period.
Also, I don't know which part of the state you are in, but here is just miserable. This weather is simply crippling me also.
I am not in your body so I am not sure what you are going through, but maybe if you lay down and turn the lights off. I was thinking that is you rest your body it would help. I feel so bad for you...... We are neighbors after all and have to watch each other's backs....
Sucks does'nt it. You know how all this works so take it slow and do what you know to do. Hang in there girl it will pass. Stay strong,maybe a hot bath right now. My prayers are with you.
Man this smacked me hard! I am in SO much pain, I can't take it. I don't know what I'd do right now if I didn't have the hope that this will eventually leave. It's completely overwhelming and all I can do is cry....
