Flare from Hell!!!!

[glassd18]

Hello everyone. It's been a while since I've been here. I wish I was here posting successful words, but unfortunately I'm still suffering daily...sigh

I am in such a bad flare, and I don't have a clue why (as per usual)

I had my Ativan prescription refilled at CVS and it was a different manufacturer so I thought maybe this was why so I went and asked for the ingredient list from both pharmacies, and there was one ingredient extra from the new pharmacy, and the pills were a lot bigger so there was a lot more filler as the strenght was the same.

Easter I ate some no no things so this could be it as well.

A lot of stress at work so that doesn't help either.

I always have some degree of pressure/pain, but usually I can ward off the worse with baking soda, but not this time. It's been going on for days, and I ache so badly in my back, and legs. I even have cramping in my calves. ugh...

Thanks for listening!!!

As you said, your flare could be a combination of things. I just hope it goes away quickly.

Sending gentle hugs,

Thank you!!!! Well thankfully I am feeling a bit better today. Nothing to write home about, but definitely better. I was able to pick up the prescription with the old ingredients yesterday, and I had a it of a better night. I'm quite exhausted from having a very restless sleep while flaring...

take like four tums and try take azo urinary tract infection. it helps some during a flare

Thanks everyone. Tums are a no no for me. I drink baking soda three times a day if I have to. The baking soda wasn't touching this flare!!! I'm feeling better now. It definitely had to be the extra added ingredient in the new Ativan prescription. I took the Ativan from the other manufacturer last night and today I'm much better except I'm tired.
