Guest guest Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 hi all, i'm kind of a 'silent member' of this group. but i still enjoy this group, and read all the posts. just wanted to vent: i've been painkillers for the last six months, I have scoliosis & fibromyalgia, and now i've weaned off them..and, i thought: well i know i need them for pain, but exercise is what i mostly need too, and i work out, NOW that i'm off the THE MEDS, omg!! the pain..is just horrible. i MAY slowing be 'used to it' if that's what you want to call it, but..my room's a mess, i was able to be more active, and now..well i'm trying. so, that's a big feat in itself: weaning yourself off opiates. i was freaking out, and went to ER, and regular doctor, and denied painkillers..was in so much pain, wanted them again..but now i can't get any..well i could if i went waaaaaaay out of my way, and am tired..but just wondering if i'll feel this way forever (maybe), or acupuncture does help, but it's not..lasting, but neither is anything else, guess i'll start working out everyday, while in horrible, what really bothers me, is people, ever since i've been off meds, people sense my vulnerability, and feed off it, some people are sympathetic, but the mean people..just hurt me more, i didn't even realize EVER that i was this sensitive, or maybe just now anyone go through this, or is it just me?
