So, I'm sitting here trying to figure out how to take every ones pain away. The best I can do right now is to strip down, fire up the stereo and do the Garth Dance. Naked.
If it works right, everyone should be pain free for several minutes after passing out from either laughing or dry heaving. I have to warn you though, there may be side effects.
thank you so much for the laugh!!! You have no idea how badly I needed that!!!!!
Salonpas patches help too. There's also a $35 tens unit available at drug stores with sticky pads
I feel you girl!!! Have they looked into what is causing yours? My dr could not believe I was able to teach when I finally got into him about a month ago, so I was like I guess that means I will have to take a few days off, his response ... Ha try at least 2 weeks, that turned into 2 more, then the last time I went it turned into dec. 5th. I just want an answer. Speaking of a hot tub, I was in my pool therapy last week, and she asked me, the therapist, if my insurance would pay for a jacuzzi tub. I said I don't don't, but I spend any where between 2 and 4 hours in the bath tub as it is. A day!!!
I do use heat sometimes. I keep getting told to use ice, but since it seems to be at least partially a nerve issue, ice makes me feel like I'm putting my hand/wrist on an electric stove.
Not fun. So thank you.
I will check out the link. I do use those kind of things, but they're mostly just rice in a sock that I made myself. Maybe that one could be more helpful.
Ice hurts me a lot. I am glad your cold is better. When I first started teaching, I was lucky it was my 2nd degree, and I already had a little girl when she went to preschool she brought us home, not only the cute little art projects, but every bug under the sun! My current husband is also a teacher and he used to get sick about once a year for at least 3 days, I mean the knock you in your butt sick! Then he started drinking a cup of emergent c every day, and has only been sick once in the last 5 years, and that was this past week he came home skipped football practice and his biddy wrestling program and went to bed. About 9:00 he was running thru the bedroom yelling is it am or pm I was like what? Is it morning or night he asked, I said night, he looked at me funny said I thought I was late for varsity wrestling conditioning, crawled back in bed and I didn't hear another thing until 4:30 when he woke up for wrestling!
Anyway,
@VapeOn86 thank you for everything you do here! I didn't mean to sound nosy when I asked how you were, but you are so sweet jumping in and asking all of us!
You guys are by my favorite thread, gives me a place to vent, when like I said yesterday, I have to put the "moms ok, it's nothing serious" look on my face and suck it up!
