And let the bone pain begin! This pain is no joke from these Neupogen shots. My sternum, sacrum, iliac crests and skull are killing me this morning.
I have been taking Claritin to ward off this bone pain and it’s been doing a pretty good job for the first 5 days, but today it decided to rear its ugly head.
I took some Tylenol so hopefully it will ease up with a little time.
***UPDATE: I had to cave and take a Norco a few hours after shot #5. The pain was a good 8/10. Not fun but doable. Just keep moving forward!***
I completely face-planted on my cement steps going out to my garage. My left leg decided it would not go up the steps, and I bit it hard. I am surprisingly sore everywhere and have a big lump on my left shin.
So far, Gilenya is working – I have not had any relapses since starting it, but the damage that was done from my prior flairs hasn’t gotten much better.
Neuropathic pain is absolutely miserable! I can’t believe I got hit with it so hard today at nearly every point of my body. It still hasn’t completely calmed down yet. Maybe tomorrow will be a better day.
It’s like you roll yourself into a little ball to just try and find some comfortable position, which does not exist. I have to call my neuro tomorrow because this is day 3 of on/off neuropathic pain with today being by far the worst. Wonder if Gabapentin is something I may need to take – but the side effects of it suck 🙁 It’s like a no-win situation.
