This misguided notion that there is nobility in suffering is a crock. If a
drug exists that will make me feel better or make my life more tolerable,
bring it on. Quad life is too short and full of misery to spend it on an
unecessary cross.
i usually say it feels like being drug down highway 90+mph naked and on
fire with gas being added constantly...yeah, that sounds about right today

You know its impossible to explain to someone that doesnt have
this pain how it hurts without sounding ridiculous, I mean when I tell
someone I feel like a thousand people are putting out their cigarettes on
me even I dont believe it but its true.
Just be glad youre not trying to explain it.

Excuse me, but I'll do drugs till I die. Manby of us are surviving
because baclofen reduces our muscle spasms to a degree that helps us to
live with some comfort. Many quads are living with profound pain caused by
the long term irregular flow of spinal fluid post injury. Many of us have
pain caused by near constant UTI's from internal catheters. There is no
reason why quads should live in misery because someone else can't feel the
pain that has become a constant companion in life. I agree it is wrong to
abuse drugs, but no doctor would ask a patient to just grin and bear it.
pain will kill you if you don't treat it. Your blood preasure shoots up,
you stroke and your heart goes down and you die. Most quadriplegics can
actually prove the medical value of marijuana as a short term nerve pain
medicine. I doubt any of us are taking drugs we don't need.
People, take your drugs wisely!
