Suzanne Posted August 31, 2006 Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 Ouch, I feel for you! I know that when i overdo it i ache all over, sometimes for days. It slowly seeps away but I can't fast track it. I also feel heaps worse when it's that time of the month, so I take pain relief then. I rest, put my legs up, keep up the fluids (as always). I tried going for a little walk to try and work it off but it was too hard. Hope you feel better soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dionna Posted August 31, 2006 Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 i know just what you mean. i don't know of anything that will take the pains away immediately but i always lay down in a cool envroment and convince my man to give me a massage. i also take plenty of motrin and once i used his sleeping med ceraquil (spelling check please). ooops. i know it wasn't prescribed to me but... hey it is a muscle relaxer and it knocked me out so i was not in so much pain. so that is an idea. perhaps you could get a doctor to prescribe you with some muscle relaxer or something like that- perhaps not actually a sleeping med. good luck and i hope you find something that works for you.dionna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
