The leg is an ongoing saga SG, I just want to get it sorted now. The physio said if the exercises he has given me don't make any difference or it it gets worse I can speak to my GP about nerve meds. I was on amytriptoline for several years for the Fibro pain but came off it due to the side effectsSunshine_girl2 said:Just caught up again , sorry to hear your leg is still playing up . My mum has sciatica, had it for years , she was given medication to shut her nerves down at night . Will you be able to be medicated on something other than painkillers. .Glad to hear the jumper is finished and the Pom poms are starting .Look after yourself OBL .Original Debt Owed Jan 18 = £17,630 Paid To Date = £6,756 Owed = £10,8740 -
I was just reading about The Tower and can't decide whether to watch it or not. I might give it a go 😊Deni_debt-free_dreamer said:Glad you got to see the physio, hope the exercises will help.

I’m glad you’ve got an official diagnosis and a plan of action. Fingers crossed that’s you on the road to recovery 🤞I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)1

Good to know what's going on with your leg. I've had brief bouts of sciatica and I know it can be horrible so I really hope the exercises and rest are successful in treating it.I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)

I really hope so, it's frustrating not being able to walk too far, I've just got back into walking on the beach and can't wait to go backSun_Addict said:I’m glad you’ve got an official diagnosis and a plan of action.

I think it's got so bad because it's been like it for a couple of months without any treatment so hopefully now it will improve. I had Sciatica years ago but it wasn't as bad as this and I pretty much carried on as normal, of course I was about 20 years younger then as well so that probably helped 😀Cherryfudge said:Good to know what's going on with your leg.

I was at slimming world and our consultant was telling us about all the health benefits of losing 10%of your weight , this included less strain on your joints and better mobility. I just laughed to myself because I've lost a stone and ended up with Sciatica 😀Original Debt Owed Jan 18 = £17,630 Paid To Date = £6,756 Owed = £10,8742
