Help me with pain from surgery, please please please

I got bad apnea somehow, maybe similarly
I was all fucked up enough before hand
it really took shittyness to a higher level of insanity
destroyed my sleep
was some kind of spider or tick bite
I'll never fkn know and these medical people are .....(add every profanity combination)
then the system took absolutely forever and a day
currently going through distress and trauma cause they've taken an entire year and a half since my machine broke
a shitty made in china switch that should never have broken
(they used to make switches you could click forever, I had one, it lived in my lego box, you could click that thing a thousand times as fast and hard as you wanted, beat it, was never going to break, now everything is made of egg shells and rice paper)
still haven't fixed it, have done nothing but waste time and money sending me all over, demanding paperwork, and inspections, 100 phone calls, and haven't done a goddamned thing. Meanwhile the machine is jury rigged to power bar to turn it on and off, plus it's not set right, works ok then slows down too much and wont allow enough air during sleep, so I'm dying anyway, probably made for a tiny little Chinamans lung capacity

I always had a bit of apnea
now its making me go retarded
I lay down and in 5 mins my nose is completely closed, can't even get to sleep trying to breath through my mouth so I'm dependant on my machine
o r I stay awake until I go unconscious
and it's ruined my life
I aint doing no operations, these people are fkn idiots
eventually I will find and kill God for this and a great many other acts of gross negligence

maybe try injecting painkillers or opioids
you can always go on methadone later
don't blame me if you get jacked by a dealer or busted or hooked for life, or divorced from the personality changes, or broke from the expense.

Praying for your healing and quick relief from pain. Look into Kratom.

try tramadol one 50mg then wait 3 hours then maybe more - take vit c and zinc double rda for next month and eat properly reguardless. fat adds to inflammation

I have had patients, including myself who could just not get out of pain, or just had no way of getting treated. Some even decided there was too much pain and well, they are with God now.

You need to go talk to your PCP about getting into Pain Management and you need to let them know how bad it has become. If even a single suicidal thought comes into your head? You tell your doctor that the pain is so critically bad that you are beginning to get ideations even though you don't want to do anything stupid AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

For the short term, if you are not allergic or on anything that will interact negatively with this, take it. It has saved my life many a time, and has actually prevented suicides in a few of my patients.

300mg Dextromethorphan Hbr. The dose is low enough that you won't start tripping or have any intoxicant effects, it will boost your mood very high due to it's actions on Serotonin, it'll numb your entire body due to it's disassociative effect and you will still be able to function normally. They have a medication that is DXM's bigger, stronger brother called Levorphanol. Talk to your doctor about it, and remember, You are in pain, you have every RIGHT to get out of pain, opiates or not you raise hell if they try and give you the "Talk"

Feel better.

WOwow, how super lucky and fortunate you just happened to have the right kind of DMSO just laying around and have no problem believing someone on the internet and bang! you're almost cured within an hour or two of your initial post.
Nothing suspect there.
Nope!
Happens every day.

It has been 30 days since I had bi-max MMA surgery to fix a topological defect in my airway. The procedure is defined by the detachment and re-attachment of the upper and lower mandible, after moving both forward a set distance and the reattching them with titanium plates and screws. In my case it was ~ 12mm. It has, thank God, well and truly cured my sleep apnea. I was averaging 70 episodes per hour in which I would hold my breath for 30 seconds or longer.

I was dying a little bit every night. Imagine seeing a coffin instead of a bed...


The procedure required my face to be peeled back from inside my mouth. During the procedure my surgeon noticed my nostril airways were also constricted and bored them out with some kind of roto-rooter bone burr saw and then sewed all the skin back together.


I was bitten by a black widow on a nerve plexus in my left arm about a decade ago. I thought that was the most pain a person could endure. It literally slowed my perception of the passage of time it was so intense. That was nothing, I now clearly see.

I have developed atypical neuralgia in my maxillary v2 and mandibular v3 branches off my trigeminal nerve.

I close my eyes and can see the skin peeling back from my lips and chin as it is turned to ash by intense heat and fire, only to regenerate and it starts all over again. That is juxtaposed with the sensation that the skin is covered by constantly agitating and bursting pustules cause by exposure to acid or some biological agent. It absolutely has not stopped since the surgery, not even for a moment, and today is the worst day yet.

I fear walking too fast because the wind of my passage, on my face, is an inferno. Baby spoons are made of Constantino wire. The whiskers of my dogs are electrified whips.

The prognosis is good, they say, as I have recovered some feeling in the areas that were so abused by the surgery, but the possibility of 5 more months of this has despair folding me into the dark abyss of its clawed, leathery wings.


GLP has power because the members believe.

Please send me healing thoughts and prayers, I beg you.

I still have the orthodontics, which are exacerbating the problem. They come out in 2 weeks to be replaced by normal orthodontics.


I am currently in Pain management, taking ~2000mg Gabpentin/day. It is completely ineffectual.

I am not having suicidal thoughts, I am just on the edge of despair.

I see the surgeon tomorrow, pain doc Monday.

Thanks for your advice, I appreciate it.

As to the Dextromethorphan, I have a bottle of vertussin (codeine suspension)

How does that compare?

I feel you, man... Gabpentin was absolutely worthless for me too. Over the years, I've tried a whole pharmacy's worth o pain killers... and what has worked best for me is the 15 mg. oxycodone, 4 times a day. PUT along with one of the most abused drugs in the country is the stigma of taking such drugs.

But those things are ridiculously difficult to manage. If you're on them for any period of time, I grantee they'll cause you problems.

In the first part of March, I go begin this treatment where they burn the nerves and that deadened the pain for up to two years. Don't know ow they'd apply it to you, but I'm sure they do...

Good luck

...please get to an acupuncturist asap... you have severely blocked meridians caused by the surgery...

In the meantime, rub castor oil on, and massage the insides of your wrists...




I am so sorry you are going through this...

Prayers for your relief....

The DMSO and all your fantastic positive energy has cut the pain on my chin by about 1/2, thank God. I can live with a camp fire after 30 days of rocket engine.


I'm going to put it on my lips now and try to smile for the first time in a month.



I truly believe we have power when we work together for good.

There is more than one GLP effect...
