    Loratab 7.5s from back doctor. Er doctor gave me loratab 5's. However because I have had this pain I have not been feeling much of my back pain lately considering most of it is down low abdimen now. I have been taking either a 5mg and a half of another at the same time. Or a whole 7.5 I origanally get from my pain doctor. This morning.I had to take a 7.5 and a 5. That's when it eased up. No worries I'm not over doing it on the pain meds. In fact when.I am not.in pain they make me sick. However I do know my body and what it can't handle. No more then like a total of 11-12 mg estimated

    Good. Good. It is okay to up to take two 7.5 every six hours, but not more often as you risk acetaminophen poisoning.

    You do not have to respond to every single post. It's nice when the original poster comes back and lets us know how things work out, provides answers to questions asked and so on, but there's no expectation that you respond to every single answer you get.

    J-9, would you bit a little concerned about prescription pain relief for severe back and abdominal pain when the source hasn't been identified? These symptoms sound like what I've experienced three times - on one of these occasions I had appendicitis - an emergency. Another, I was miscarrying. The third time I had a tubal pregnancy - another emergency.

    It seems weird they wouldn't find a cause and would send someone home without doing an ultrasound in this situation, but I'm not a medical expert by any stretch.

    No not worried about taking them although sometimes they don't help much. And OK thank you about post. I go in tomorrow. I can not wait... I bought a bottle of wine since pain meds are not working very great guna try that tonight... usually one glass relaxes me pretty good but during.the day I have.kids.I can obly do so much but if.I did a tubal pregnancy or miscarriage there shouldn't be a way pain meds could hurt me for that or thr baby if the baby is no longer there. Witch I'm sure I will be sad if that's the case. But I do thing if I get my tubes tied regardless whatever the problem is I qill prob have less provlems.

    Ok so I got to.go.to the doctors early. I went today instead of tomorrow. He told me my uterous has dropped tremendously. And I had possible infection in tubes and endometreosis... said.it.is.common in woman who.have had two c sections and a tubal. So he put me on birth control for 3 months because.i.suraunce is strict if.they don't try birth control first. But he def saw sergery in my.near future if.I didn't choose to.go ahead and schedule it when I go back after my 3 months of trying birth control. I will be having a hesterectamy or.partial and or a laprostopsy or how ever.you say it... anyway somethinh.like that... thank you for all your help. Hope this because helps a little at least before then

    Thank you so much for coming back and filling us in. I was just thinking of you today.

    The news may sound grim, but at least you got an answer/reason for your pain.

    How are you feeling about all of this?

    Thank you for coming back and posting. At least now you have a diagnosis. I'm glad you went to the Doctor.

    Please keep us informed.

    Thank you both so very much. To not know me I really appreciate all the kind words, help, and to keep you posted :-)) that means a lot. Thank you. I am actually thinking I will be glad when I have the sergery. However I want to look more.into them and.deciding.witch one I think will be better is the hard part.. My doctor recommended the lacroposy and or partial hisyerectamy. I kind of.got.confused and wadnt sure.if those were the same thing. Going to do all my research on them tomorrow. And the pain is still the same. Doctor just gave more pain meds and birth control. Said and I hope it does. I should feel better in a few weeks if the birth.control helps. However he also couldbt be certain.it was endometreosis but can not tell without going inside and looking anyway. But said regardlrss everything that has been going on it would pretty much be in my best interest to get it done asap when thr birth control is done for three month. The bith control could help he said. If it does.not.there is a bigger problem possibley. But we have.to satisfy the ins.company by trying it first... so I will check in from.time to time and keep you all posted and once again thank you so much for all the help... I'm jusr ginna have.to.tough it out a little longer. :-))

    Laproscopy is just to open you up and look around to find out what exactly is going on. The partial hysterectomy would be removing your uterus but keeping the ovaries.

    Ok you that's right thank you. Ya kind.of makes me.want to do.the full so.if.I have.more.problems down the road I won't have.to have.yet another sergery later down the road. Will a partial solve my cist on ovaries problem?
  • Apr 9, 2013, 08:31 PM
    Bmatt0622
    He also said recovery time for.the partial is about 3 weeks as to.the full it is 3 months about... so actually regardless.if.I would like the fukk I might have.to.go with the partual just for.the fact if.I coukd.find.help with kids... I woukdnt want and be.able to.not.take.care.of.my.babies.for.that long :-((

    Partial won't solve the cyst issue as you will still have your ovaries. However, having the ovaries removed presents another problem. It will throw you into immediate menopause.

    I don't know where you live, but where I am the recovery is not nearly that long. A few days to a few weeks at most.

    Wow... so partial would be in my brst interest. And really few days at earliest. I myself think I would take.longer to.recover just from my c sections. Took ne a few weeks on each one before.I could walk good.again... I geuss.from cutting my muscles..? I was in pain of.course for a while. However.if it.would.only.be a few days that would be.sooooo awsome... I live in Alabama...

    That's odd. The site is free, you don't need a token to post. I've never seen that sort of error message before. If it happens again go to forum help and take a screen shot of what you're seeing so that the people that run the site can take a look.
