I walk several miles a day, including uphill but I can't work out like I used to because of bad ligaments. I can use light upper body weights but nothing that strains the pelvic ligaments.

I guess after spending several years mostly in bed it's hard to feel down because I am just so happy to be able to sit and work again. I know I don't look as great as I used to when I was working out (I'm thin like you and trying to gain weight) but one of my friends at work is trying to lose weight and last week she said "I just want to look like you" :lol: :lol: Well, I guess the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.

Sadly since all these issues started I never even tried having sex. I went to a new doctor and when she asked I said it could be 2009 between the spasms or 2007? She asked if my husband was okay with this and I told her he does not want to hurt me and just wants me to get better. That is the focus although I am sure he misses it but with the Italian brothers I have as we joke he would not dare hurt me! We have watched too many mafia movies. Maybe after the next few years of nerve recovery and settling down the pain will subside and we can try it out. Sorry I do not have better news on that.

Mobic is a trade name for meloxicam, which is a non steroidal anti-inflammatory.

Really glad you are getting pain relief with this, Leilaa! This stuff does not really affect pain coming from nerves so the fact that it has helped you is an indication that perhaps the nerve is not what is causing your pain.

Anyway - result! :D

Does that mean I may not have PNE?

I Only had 1 mobic yesterday and I still feel good. I hope the feeling never comes back but I can feel the med slowly losing its effect.

Don"t any of u feel numb or pain free with the painkillers?. This is the only thing made me feel normal again.

For me painkillers just take the edge off but not get rid of the pain. I am flared from standing after a long day and waiting for my ride. Honest mistake for switching the time but it did me in. I took a tramadol and not sure that is helping much so by bedtime I will take an oxycodone-APAP 5-325mg.

Me too, Janet - still taking slow release tramadol every day, plus 10 mg oxycodone when it gets bad. Anti-inflammatories do not touch it and to be honest I am not bothering with paracetamol/acetaminophen as that does not touch it either. I was better before this last op - since then I think the only time I have been completely pain free was right after the surgery when I was on ketamine.

Leilaa - what does your doctor say about your pain? If you are getting good relief from Mobic (meloxicam) then that's really excellent, I think that ought to mean that there is an excellent chance that you will recover completely.
