Feeling a bit sad.....

[cinna]

About almost three weeks ago I woke up on a Sunday morning with terrible pain in my neck and down my left scapula. I thought I had pinched a nerve and that the pain would go away with resting and some exercises. But by Wednesday the pain got worse and I had to seek medical assistance. I found out that I have a herniated disc in my neck
To help with the pain I've been put on a really heavy medication and now I am experiencing some not so nice side effects (and the list is SO LONG and not fun to read). Vertigo, constant headache, trouble with focus are some of them. The thing is that I don't have so many choices when it comes to medication due to other health issues. I am just hoping that the side effects are gonna wear off - or that my physician can find another medication.

Most of all I hope to recover ASAP so I can get back to normal again!

Take care everyone!

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that Carina! Those side effects sound terrible, and come with the loss of being able to do a lot of your normal everyday things. I hope you find a better solution.

I am so sorry Carina! It’s so rough when side effects are just as bad as the problem. I hope you’re able to endure it all and fully recover.

That's not good news, and unfortunately there aren't many treatment options. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you'll feel better soon.

I am sorry to hear of your suffering, and hoping your doctor and you can find the medicine or procedure to help you with the pain and eliminate the reason for it. I have accompanied a friend (as an interpreter for the neurosurgeon) through the operation on her spinal hernia two years ago, and that resolved the issue completely, so I hope there is a long term solution for you, too. Keeping you in my thoughts, praying for your recovery, Carina.

I sure hope things improve soon and you feel better. Don't blame you for feeling sad right now but hopefully not for long.
