Re: UNBELIEVABLE!!!

Count me in on the handicap permit crowd! I have had my placard for 3 years, and originally got it at the recommendation of my urologist, and it is a lifesaver. Like A's Mommy, I am unable to walk very far (and I don't even have to worry about lifting an active two-year old up and down from a cart!)...

Re: UNBELIEVABLE!!!

How awful that must have felt to come out of the grocery store, exhausted, hurting, taking care of your child, and then finding that note. It should never have happened. I've often thought about making a t-shirt that shows on the outside what it looks like on our insides. I'm so sorry sweetie. (((((...

Re: Too Tired

A's Mommy, I wrote a big long response to your beautiful, touching poem and when I went to submit it, the forum asked me to sign in again (I guess I took too long writing it!). Anyway, when I went back to the page my response was gone! I wanted you to know how deeply it touched me. I felt the sadnes...

Re: Neurontin (Gabapentin) in CREAM/OINTMENT form

I don't have any experience with the ointment, but I would sell the rest of my belongings to have an On Q Pump forever!! I'm with you, Grace! I loved my "Onky" pump! (that's the nickname we gave it, LOL) - - - - - - And Ezer, thanks for the tip! I will look into that if I need to get more...

Re: Neurontin (Gabapentin) in CREAM/OINTMENT form

I have gabapentin ointment which works the best for that neuralgia pain on my labia and left side of the tip of my clitoris, which must be where the nerve creates havok in my situation. It is not grainy at all, as it is compounded in a base of almond oil and something else - I am going from memory a...
