The Mad Chatters thread Part 4

Paige,
Have you tried some kind of naproxen drug like Alleve. Sometimes this is better than Tylenol or Motrin.
One of the Doctors at the hospital used to order 1 every 6 hours. Again, that is for short term use only. Don't want to mess with your kidneys or liver by overloading them!

It's not.

I don't know Kar, it just got this way. I stepped out of the van when I got home from work one day and it just hurt. I limp and it hurts when I walk, just dull ache at the end of the day when I don't. It's been since the end of August. I went to the dr. but he said nothing on xray, so gave me a referral tosee a specialist and get a bone scan done. Too many darn medical bills right now, so I don't really want to go.

How about soaking it??? Would that be an option for some pain relief? Put a little epsom salts in warm water and soak 10-15 minutes.

 

[paigevz]

Oh honey, you are never in the way of a chat. Anytime you need help, I'll try to help you.

Yeah, but I was having fun with Bonnie and Al......................and we've got newbies. I don't like to ask that stuff on the dark side though...............

I had some similar this summer. My Dr told me it was tendonitus (sp?) and there wasn't much that could be done. She told me to roll a tennis ball around with my foot. She also prescibed foot rubs by DW (she didn't buy it)

Don't worry about me. You can't offend this newbie!

One of my friends told me to do the foot rubs with dh........he didn't buy it either!

I'll try soaking it, I have a new foot soaker. Well, I say new, I got it last Christmas but haven't used it.

Back later!

 

[momrek06]

Good idea, Paige....come back and let us know if you got any relief from that at all....

 

[mom2taylorandemily]

Paige, where on your foot does it hurt? Maybe I can help. I have lots of feet trouble, I took ballet for 16 years and have done just about everything you can do to your feet. I am pretty knowledgeable about the foot.

So, are you a nurse in a hospital? Do you do maternity baby-nursing?

 

[mom2taylorandemily]

Was it something I said? This always happens lately when I get on, everybody leaves, then I'm stuck talking to myself. And you all wonder where Cybil came from.

 

[Bbgrizzle]

I'm gonna hit the hay. My lungs are hurting and I'm tired. Plus Mary's still here. Just kidding, Mary!!

Good night, folks!

Yes and Yes. And I have to get up at 5:15 , so I guess I'll head off to bed.
I really do enjoy my job. I waited a long time to work on that floor

 

[paigevz]

I'm here Mary, just went and got the foot spa............

Bye Bonnie!

Sounds like a very rewarding job, but good night, it was nice having you join us. Come back.

 

[babynurse1]

p.s. Thanks for the warm

Hope to post more with you all!

Ok, Paige, where does it hurt on your foot? I might be able to help!

 

[paigevz]

Goodnight Babynurse

Well, the only place it hurts to touch is just above and behind the little sticking out knobby bone on the right side. But when I walk, it hurts in the middle on top, and it feels tight underneath.......don't know how else to describe that. But when it gets really bad, the pain radiates to my ankle, from the right side, around to the front middle.
