How can that happen? I took the Lortab before bedtime and everyone had warned me that it would knock me out. Well, I was up for hours trying to go to sleep! (wide awake!) I tossed and turned for the longest time.
I finally went to sleep---and then woke up with the pain again. It wasn't quite as intense as before, but it was still bad enough that I could not sleep in the bed. So I crawled into the recliner again!
I was so disappointed that I still had the pain! I never imagined that that would happen. How can that happen? The only thing I can think of is maybe I have a pinched nerve---and the pain med doesn't work for that.
Ok, maybe now people will believe me when I tell them I'm in pain. I think some of my friends were beginning to think I was a hypochondriac. Even my mother kept telling me that if I would just relax that maybe I could go back to sleep at night (like it was all in my head!)
I'm tired of people telling me to just take a warm bath or a couple of Tylenol. It's not that simple. This pain will not go away at night.
