    Prayers needed. Son-ln-law on the way to hospital to have x-rays. turned riding mower over and landed on his back. Please pray. they have children and I am in a flare and my husband is also disabled and daughter is angry at me because I could not keep the babies. I feel like a dog for not being able too. All I could do is pray, but still hurts. Also I have been on brand name oxycontin for a long and now my insurance will only pay for generics, which do not seem to be helping. Was wondering if anyone else is having this problem. Thanks

            sending big hugs and good vibes to your daughter and her husband. how old are her little angels?
            It is hard having little ones with IC, fibro, sacralititis, some days worse then others. I am totally exhausted when my 22 month old goes to bed. its extra hard like days I had today, he is sick and crabby, and wants up and down up and down, you are hurting so bad you want to cry.

              I understand about the generic meds working differently sometimes. I have multiple chemical sensitivities so often times I have to stay with the Brand Name.

              I hope your Son-in-law is ok. How scary.

              Well Wishes and for a better day tomorrow.
