Medical Question for Dr. Skunky

[Lady D]

Anyone else feeling kind of sick from all these pictures and descriptions?

I wouldn't last a day in medicine, the only hemorrhaging I can see is from bank accounts. But that makes me a little ill too. Must lie down...

Yes, I am. This is grossing me out.

Why don't you post the side effects of Obecalp CR?

Why don't you post your PO Box for the checks from all of dr. skunky's patients?

JR - Hope you got some sleep last night. Darvocet works much better than aleve. Let us know how the MRI goes.

Take Care

Thanks. I'm not feeling too well today. I still woke up in pain several times so took another Darvocet (it had been 6 hrs. since the first one). Most pain meds don't seem to do much for me.

Later.

Dr. Skunky and/or Audie,

Is it possible that the Darvocet could actually intensify the pain?? I know that sounds absolutely crazy; and I've searched online (thruout the night last night!) and didn't find anything on this. My pain has ramped up to an intolerable level. I stopped the darvocet at about 2am.

The ortho. office won't have the MRI report (but I do have the film) until tomorrow so the receptionist won't let me see him. Says it's no use. I am very close to going to the ER because of the pain is at about a 9 - 10, and the fluid retention seems to be building. But I hate waiting in the ER for hours upon hours, but it may be my only hope right now.

Thanks
