So I'm talking to my mom just now on the phone telling her about the excruciating pain I've been having and just had another episode....so she's hard of hearing and I keep telling her I'm having sphincter spasms...she keeps saying, say that word again...what are you saying...what is it? So after saying it 3 times I gave up and said my *bleep*hole. She understood it then.
There does that story make your day go by just a lil faster?
Have you ever heard of proctalgia fugax bow wow? I've been googling it though I haven't been officially diagnosed. I'm convinced that is what's been happening to me for years. It's good to find a name for it but disheartening to see there isn't really a cause or cure listed. My dr. is to be calling me back here today....I am sooo drained. Some comments on mystery diagnosis likened it to child birth pain...yup...can I get an epidural now? But seriously...I took my hydrocodone for my neck...which by the way isn't helping...my herniated discs are on FIRE! right before last nights attack and last night was the worst attack EVER! Why couldn't it have helped the pain? Some people say they take ibuprofen and that helps a little...others soak in a tub...I did that until I really felt like I was going to pass out...and I was getting cold sweats, feeling nauseaus, and it wasn't relaxing any. Some sit on a tennis ball to try to massage the area...think my dog will mind? Can't sit, can't lay, can't get comfortable....tired and exhausted....
This totally sucks...I'd rather have all the dr's in the world and my siblings and any one else with a smug attitude have reoccuring sphincter pain that renders them useless, writhing in pain, with no sense of relief, with every possibilty of passing out and further injury...then set them on fire. How about that beaner? pains in the ***
