Any quick remedies for intense pain? That don't require needles?

[psyche29]

I hatehatehatehate HATE pain.

Especially when it's in my side, from just under my shoulder blade stretching along the rib around to the front just under the breast. This is the second time in just over a month, and it's ridiculous.

I can hardly breathe properly - yawning and deep breathing make me see stars. And, of course, the only position it doesn't hurt in is lying on that side. *rolls eyes* Go figure.

Going to the chiropractor a little later - let them adjust and massage the hell out of it, then come back home and lie on ice some more. *sigh* Ahh, well.

A couple of stolen memes:

I Am... feeling every one of my twenty-nine years today.

I Want... my husband to close the windows.

I Have... a month to go till mini-vacation time.

I Wish... people would just do what I tell them to do.

I Like... playing my Harvest Moon game.

I Hate... not knowing.

I Fear... being left behind.

I Search... for a way to change the world.

I Wonder... when I'll finally feel like an adult.

I Regret... nothing - life's too short to waste with regrets.

I Love... like I've never been hurt - it's the only way to live life completely.

I Ache... for a best friend, one who wants me in return.

I Always... have pen and paper handy.

I Usually... listen to music.

I Am Not... a graceful loser.

I Dance... when I'm certain no one is watching.

I Still... am mortally afraid of the doctor.

I Sing... constantly.

I Never... eat asparagus. Nasty stuff.

I Rarely... am late.

I Cry... occasionally.

I Am Not Always... very patient.

I Lose... keys. Which is why I'm generally not allowed to have any...

I'm Confused... when I'm ill.

I Need... to be needed.

I Should... really go to the bathroom, cuz I've gotta pee.

I'm Thinking... about begging Mom to make cookies...

Ask me anything you want, tell me how you truly feel about me, ask me something you should know but don't, tell me the reason I'm on your F-list.

And stolen from kazzy24:

Paranoia meme

1. Tell 10 people on your flist what you always wanted to tell them, but were too scared to.
2. You mustn't name the persons.
3. You mustn't deny or confirm any guesses.

Except since I only have ten people ON my F-list, one of whom isn't even on LJ anymore, I'm just going to do five people.

1. I would be nothing - nothing - without you.

2. I sometimes think you need to try acting your age more often and enjoying life for what it is, because you deserve it.

3. Becoming friends with you was one of the smartest things I ever did.

4. You think on such an intellectual level and it makes me feel like an inadequate moron. But I learn from you, even though you have no idea.

5. You have so much to give to the world - I hope you know that you can always come to me when it all gets too demanding.

Aww you're not gonna tell? -_- At least tell me if I am on there xD If I am, I have a feeling it's number 2. o_o

[psyche29.livejournal.com]

*lol*

Nope, not gonna tell. *zips lips* *lol*

Maddening, isn't it? *isn't laughing in complete amusement right now*

I still love you though, Muggs. *HUG* :D

[mugglesrock18.livejournal.com]

Aww, I wub you too. But I wanna know. :(

Lol I am so paranoid xD

[psyche29.livejournal.com]

Don't worry, I'm generally paranoid about this kind of thing, too. Except I work hard not to be online, because honestly, what can I do about it? You know? *hehe* People are going to have their own views and habits and necessities, etc. I can't change them from far away, so I try to go with the flow.

I know that doesn't make it any easier on you...just felt like explaining. ;) *lol*

[kriz29.livejournal.com]

hmmm... these can be so frustrating when I have no idea who you're talking about! I think I'm on there... I don't know. I think I could be 5 I suppose... definitly not 4 *rotfl* I bet you're enjoying seeing us wonder about this *lol*

I hate pain too!!!!! Needles, bruises, everything, I can't stand it either. *big hugs (but is careful not to hurt your rib ;) * Hope it gets better.

[psyche29.livejournal.com]

*snickers to self* I'm having a grand time. *lol*

And thanks - it's slowly getting better. I'm not seeing stars when I yawn or take deep breaths anymore, so that's good. And I can sleep on my belly again, which is a huge plus (I am totally a tummy-sleeper).

And big hugs are excellent - only moving around a lot hurts it. *BIG HUG BACK*

Awwww hope you're feeling a little better today! *hugs*

Am I on there? :/

[psyche29.livejournal.com]

Feeling a little better today, as I mentioned to Kris above. It still hurts to breathe deeply, but not to the point of seeing stars. *hugs back*

And I don't know...are you? *evil grin* *hehe*

[kitkats-lj.livejournal.com]

Aww I hope you sort it out! *hugs some more*

Oh come on, please tell me? *paranoid*
