I'm exhausted as i can't get any sleep. I keep waking up thoughtout the night because i can't breathe through my nostrils. During the day I have shaking fits and i can't even hold a glass of water. Worst of all is being stuck at home and being BORED!

I have a pretty high tolerance to hydrocodone...I have for the past month or so done it on a daily basis as I am prescribed...Lastnight about midnight I took some morphine, it was the first time i've ever taken it...It is now 5:30am and i'm still in my right mind, I feel extremely good...But I am worried because I have read on alot of websites that morphine overdose causes pin point pupils...In this case my pupils are VERY small but I dont seem to have any other side effects other than tired as hell and slowed breathing, not too much slower than normal though...Im kinda scarred to go to sleep...Is this normal with morphine? To have small pupils? Is that necesarily mean I have overdosed...Its keeping me from falling to sleep...Or is it normal to have small pupils?....Theyre still dialating to light really well...Thanks any info would be appriciated...Im just very worried...

If you had serious pain like arthritis or migraine or something like that and it was immediately relieved how would you describe that. One word answers or very short phrases.

I just found out from a cat scan that I've been having migraine headaches, did anyone know that you can tell that from a cat scan?

Well, the medicine prescribed causes drowsiness and I have 2 young children so I can only take my medication at night, does anyone know any natural remedies I can use or something that might help with these severe migraines?

My 12yr old son slipped and hurt his ankle. I took him to Urgent Care where they took xrays and told me it was fractured. They put a splint on it and told me to take him to his PCP for follow up and casting the next day when the swelling went down.

His PCP made us wait for ever, then proceded to tell us to go get an air cast because the receptionist didn't schedule enough time for him to do the cast. Then we had to come back a few days later for a check up. My husband is a personal trainer and has sports medicine training specifically for sports injuries. When I requested a photo copy of the radiology report, to show my husband, the doctor didn't want to give me one. He gave me a hard time and wanted to just "write it down" like anyone could ever read a doctors handwriting anyway. Finally, I threw a fit and he made me wait another 15min to sign a form to get the copy.

What's the big deal? I don't get why the hassle?

I visited my neurosurgeon today and he said my last option is fusion, L4-L5,and L5-S1. I am 27 and cant afford to be out of work for too long. The only thing left is Cortisone shots that I have been getting, then surgery. What is the earliest I could return to a labor intensive job, but not push it?

I suffered bulging discs at C-5, & 6 from a car wreck 6yrs. ago. My neurosurgeon told me the damage was not major enough for surgery. After 6mos. the pain was no better so I got a 2nd opinion and was told the same. So I've basically suffered ever since. But since I started having children in the past couple yrs....the pain is now unbearable. By 5-6:00 every day, I'm lying down w/ a heating pad on the back of my neck. All these local docs wanna do is get me addicted to pain pills, which I hate the idea of.
Also, one of my neuro's called it degenerative disc disease, but I was injured in a wreck. Is this the same thing? Anyone else suffer like this? Any insight?

Ok so since the begining of February my hroat has been sore. The 2nd week it was so sore i couldnt swallow. Then after a few days passed it felt like it was trying to clear up but no such luck the following day it was the worst it had been at all. I ended up going to the hospital in the middle of the night because it kept waking me from my sleep and i would be in tears it hurt so bad. They done a strep and mono test and both came back negative. I have had no other symptoms at all except for the past 3 days a stuffy/runny nose. It reminded me of a smokers cold when it first started so i just blew it off but as it worsened and has stuck around im furious im in so much pain i can barely swallow sometimes so i avoid eating and i can barely sleep i take 4-5 advil to help with some pain and that has stopped working. I was now taking tylenol with codiene and i am able to sleep a little and eat soup but nothing hard. Ive tried every home remedy i know of and nothing helps. Could some1 plz help
