what do you do when your in pain.

today was a tough day for me. Alot of pain, work was bad as well, so that brings me to a question. What do you do on bad days to drown out the pain?

I snuggle and find a good film to watch or play Candy Crush Saga & Bubble witch saga on my pad I'm an addicted to those to games! And try and have a snooze as well because sleep is a good thing when your in pain. Hope your pain eases alittle soon.

Pain is terrible when you have no cure for it, I hope you feel better soon xxx :kiss:

Hi Overdrive. I'm also currently having a bad time with my pain issues. About the worst ever. All I can say is take medications if you have them. The full allowed dose so you can get ahead of the pain a bit. I agree about sleep. I also play online games or read.

Can you do some mild stretching? Like a cat or dog when they wake up from a nap. They always stretch. It helps me actually stand upright quicker if I stretch.

Hope you feel better soon.

Is it like bursting for a pee? you have to think of something else. But it becomes a point when you start dancing around and you can't think of nothing else but having a pee.

I like that definition!!

Karl, you are right. I do get to a point where it is so bad, even lying still in bed, that I can do nothing but cry and swear. My husband hears a lot of "f*** you!", "F*** everything!", and "get me a gun!" I have had a few episodes where pain has made me nauseous and that means I have to go to the ER for an injection. It scares me sometimes how bad it can get.

I watch this programme on in Blighty called 'One born every minute' is a documenty set in a maternity hospital with camera's everywhere so you can catch a woman from labour to seeing her give birth. I love it because what the women say to there poor partners who feel useless! Labour is a pain so when we are in pain we can come out with some funny things and verbally abuse our partners! I know I do!! I sometimes threaten my husband by saying 'Do you want to know how bad this pain is hurting me come over here and I will wack you in your meat and two veg as hard as I possibly can with my crutches, then you will know!!' :evil:

Amanda, I love it! I've told my daughters that the delivery of my first baby was a disaster because I had a male doctor and my second was a breeze because I had a female midwife. That was because the last thing a woman wants between her legs when she's in that much pain is a man! :woohoo:
