Due to my poorly back i have been put on pretty much every medication under the sun.
For now its Valiums 5mg twice a day
(Diazapam) and Gabapentin 2 three times a day
Oramorph (liquid) which i have a teaspoon of when my back gets really painful
Naproxen as antiinflammatories
Propranolol for my anxiety
Mertrizapine for my depression and lack of sleeping.
To be honest its all a bit ridiculous. Doctors would not even know i had a torn disc and degenerated disc in my spine if it wasn't for me pestering them and going in there every other day begging them to put me for an MRI
6 months later MRI complete they find out whats wrong and in that time i believe it got a lot worse.. i was put through physio that i did not need which made me have to quit my job and have been unemployed and on ESA ever since
Its killing me :( i am sad because i continuously have to take medication i have only been awake 10mins took 4 tablets and woke up with a burning sensation in my back as always.
So hard not to let it get you down when youve had to cancel so much of your life because of it.
Doubt you'll catch a smile from me today!
