Hi, my name is LuckyTony!

Excuse the username, all the other Tony alternatives were taken. Lucky is kinda accurate.. I didn’t say “Good luck” did I? Just joined to have someone to talk(txt) to when it all gets too much..

Good Afternoon & Welcome to our online community/family.
I am one of the Community Champion’s here at Scope.
Yes I have had chronic pain down my right side since 2005
“Pain in the Neck”
I am on lots of meds
you can hear me “Rattling”
Are you on any meds yourself????
Have you seen anyone at a Pain Clinic?????
Sorry for all of the questions.
@steve51
I have suffered with toothache for years due to rotting teeth but I find Orajel available at pharmacies fantastic totally numbs the pain
I look forwRD TO SEEING YOU AROUND
Many thanks for the welcomes and advice.
I think what’s getting me down most is the constant lurching from one issue to another and the lack of sleep which makes the pain an stress so much harder to deal with.
Thanks for being there, Perhaps I should have gone for cheerful Tony instead of lucky 😆
Please please don’t worry about the “Moaning & Bitching”
This is why we are all here!!!!!!!!
@steve51
How are you this morning??????
I do hope that last night was okay as well???????
@steve51
Yes!!
No probs it’s my Pleasure.
That’s great my friend.
Yes I am the other end of the spectrum.
If I don’t have someone to wake me up then I end up sleeping all day.
This drives me mad!!!
I do hope that you have a good day???
@steve51
wouldn’t it be great to be able to “Loan out” particular symptoms/issues?
Yes that would be a good idea my friend.
I have got a long list of symptoms/issues.
If nobody wakes me up I would still be in bed 🛌 now.
Not good for my meds as I have to take them in the morning/evening.

i suddenly had an increase in volume of tinnitus some six years ago, sounds like jet engines on take off in both ears. At first it drove me nuts especially at night when the house was quiet. People told me I’d get used to it and frankly I didn’t believe them but after about five years I did! Now my tinnitus actually blocks out extraneous noises so I sleep better. It’s like a super power gone wrong! But like the old Neil Sedaka song ‘waking up is hard to do.’ I find I over sleep quite often. Swings and roundabouts.
