[QUOTE="helpangel, post: 619844, member: 7170"] Thanks Susie, yes that seems to be my life story my reactions to medical treatment are worse then what they treated me for. My son a c-section popped staples puking pain medications, vain split, infections everywhere they touched me practically, air bubble in spinal column, od'd on pain medications (in hospital yep) was lucky me & my son got out alive LOL My PCP is on top of this she saw me Thur (gave me pain patches) and again this morning (never saw a reaction to a patch like this before lol) anyway labs are back it's not my back its stones again. Surprisingly beer will break them up but I hate the taste of it, (not good for stomach but less harsh then the medications are) malt vinegar works too but is a blood thinner so that one isn't safe for me. My ulcers (3) one is barely pinpoint, one slightly bigger but the big one is size of a dime - they aren't the bacteria ones; they were caused years ago by an anti inflammatory in a busy working full time, college student + mom who would take medications on an empty stomach washed down with coffee then fly off to work, or school or laundry etc. literally ate holes in my stomach I'm not sure if I abused too many drugs as a teen or what but my body rejects almost everything that comes out of a pharmacy. They have trialed me on about every SSRI and AD known to man for the PTSD & panic attacks - I can't take any of it side effects off the charts ... ok Xanax or Valium will help in an absolute emergency but I can't take it 3 days or will get hickups for like 8-10 hours constant (ribs hurt, dehydration from not being able to drink etc.) It's like my bodies way of saying "ok druggie your not doing this to me again" Got a disc out of place in my back (T9) lost almost an inch in height when it happened 18years ago still short that inch- stomach won't tolerate any pain medications. As an addict I need to beware of starting to "like" any of those medications also. My PCP hated the idea at first but now agrees that for now medical mj along with a thyroid medication is best option for me. It doesn't fix any of the 3 conditions but does help make them tolerable. My caregiver is knowledgeable about all my conditions going on and avoids any strains that will make the stress disorder stuff worse. I know controversial subject and just for the records I'm against full legalization think it should be kept by prescription only. Sorry I'm writing a book again, was going thru internet withdrawals and missed all my friends here while laying around all weekend. Nancy [/QUOTE]
