“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms.”
“Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.” ~ Samuel Adams

- I may have turned the corner on the pain; although I have been up all night after a 2am blast, it hasn't re-occurred yet. That is unusual and good. OTOH,I have thought this before and been nailed by a schedule change on the part of the fried nerve ;>
I started a medicine called gabapentin night before last; it's an anticonvulsant used to fight nueralpathic (sp?) pain. It normally takes 1 to 2 weeks to mitigate the pain, but I can hope, ne?
However, I have been beating the shit out of my arm with fire and ice...ice packs, icy hot, heating pad, and hot tub. I also started using a cervical pillow two nights ago, and that seems to be helping as well. I have been basically throwing everything I can read up on against the wall and hopefully something sticks.
I just want some damn sleep!
