It's ok dear, I was having a side effect from the meds, not a dangerious one, but one that was merely uncomfortable. Seems in some people the painkiller makes it feel like your heart is slamming thru your chest... but the pulse rate and BP is normal. A bit disconcerting is all.

Are you sure it's the painkiller, not the muscle relaxer. The painkiller you mentioned shouldn't do that, at least in my experience.

It's the combo of the two. I have a very low med tolerance. I can not walk today.

Hmmm... Sounds like palpitations maybe? If your HR and BP are both normal, I would say wait 'till tomorrow and call your doc to see if he can switch your meds.
That being said- if you have any chest pain, shortness of breath, unusual upper back pain, shoulder pain, etc. get to your doc STAT!

I will call you tomorrow after I find my phone

Sorry dear.

It will get better.

It's ok dear. It's voltarin (no idea if i spelled that right) with viccodin and uh... baclofen. All 3 so I can try and sleep. Feeling every heart beat does not lead to sleep, it leads to me reciting Poe all night. Because of my allergies to sulfa it's the best match.

I would, but it'll take me days to paddle my desk chair over there to help.

Voltarin is a muscle relaxer and very hard on your stomach. Vicodin can cause reverse effects in many people. Me it puts to sleep, others it wires them up. Could be the issue with you. Voltarin won't do that.
