I get so mad at myself

zippy2 · Oct 18, 2015

My back is hurting like really really bad, and when that happens I can get really snarky and curt. I don't mean to but it just happens. I have snapped at some of the posters on here today and I really am sorry. I have no patience and I know that is wrong!

I am sorry guys. Just don't read my posts when i get like that.

What was the diagnosis?

I have 3 messed up disks, rheumatoid arthritus, nerve damage in lumbar region. 3 wks ago I had 7 shots in my back and they worked for awhile and last week i injured my back again and am trying to let that part heal. The prognosis is not good. But I am hopeful that with the shots maybe i can get off some of the meds that I have been taking for so many years. this isn't a new thing. thanks for asking.

Hi,

Once a month about week three, I get to be what I don't want to be. And, for me, I would say like in a girl's case that Jesus was talking to called Sr. Faustina, He told her that to control her thoughts, she is not strong enough to do that.

Yet, this same woman who Jesus said much about, He also told her, that He is taking her to His Father and she is to be his wife, and He is to be a husband to her.

If Jesus can accept the normal patterns of women, the rest of us can also. When that rather difficult time started for me, each month I would go to girlfriends and talk about just how out of control I was, and my job was to be sweet and nice to everyone.

Pain is no different, in the sense that it puts you out of control sometimes. It does me also.

LOVE,

Well I know a doctor who did a presentation on these issues and actually speaks about more permanent and natural approaches you can take. I can share it with you if you are interested, just to give yourself more options.

What types of medication are you taking for the rhematoid arthritis? I take Remicade and it totally stopped my inflammation. Have you seen a surgeon about those discs and the nerve problems? Most of that can be fixed.

I have seen a surgeon but right now we are doing pain injections and that is working pretty well. I have actually been amazed at how well. But I still have bad days and that was what was happening when I made this post.
Thank you for your interest. I'll ask my doc about Remicade, thanks.

Thank you. I am doing much better. And I am going to have those affecting nerves frozen in January. That will take care of the majority of the pain.

I know what you mean. I get really mean when I am in pain. Just tell people to be patient with you.

My husband has A LOT of patience with me and people have to as I am in pain everyday. Some days are worth then others but I get through it with over the counter medicine and sleep, lots and lots of sleep.

I'm praying for you.

Thank you. I will pray for you too, Army Wife. When pain is really bad it can change one's whole outlook. For sure. God's blessings on you sis.

Thank you. Prayers and leaning on God is all I have cause I feel like I'm "falling apart". But there are days when I just want to give up but my husband helps me through those days.

I thank God for my wife and my support system too. I would be lost also without them. And I praise the Lord for pain meds, including ibuprofent and aleve (naproxen sodium)!

Hey I didn't know about this sub-forum until now.
My back is really bad too. I have spondylolisthesis. Cant stand for more than hour without nerve pain in my lower back. It drives me insane often. Once I was bent over in the shopping centre, trying to relieve it, and someone came over and said "I thought you were having a heart attack!"

Hi! I am sorry to hear you have this problem too, or something like it. I dont know the official name of mine though. just last Thursday I had shots in my back that hopefully will take effect in a few days. That should last about 3 months until I have to do it all over again. Relief has not kicked in as yet so I havent been on line for about a week.
It is a very difficult thing to live with and I keep all my friends here who have it in my prayers and now you also! God bless you.... but hey, I am REALLY GLAD you were not having a heart attack!

I get so mad at myself
