It’s worth a shot. I haven’t bought the OTC version. It is marketed as Voltaren gel. I have ust used the identical prescription version. So, not sure what it costs OTC, but doubt it’s prohibitive for a trial run. QUOTE="Ulysees E. McGill, post: 22304136, member: 24559"]Nope....haven't heard of that.[/QUOTE]

I think it was Hyams on the sports source this morning that said JWT had the highest NIL deal of any of last year's signees.

I wonder if they were going to cut back on his deal and that factored into his leaving as much as pecking order did.

 

[Christian Lowe]

Glad you’re making progress bro. A lot of ppl don’t. Years ago when I went through it my doc said I was one of two ppl that made it through, and that was out of hundreds of patients

Yeah my doc tells me that there’s no shame in being on it for life, but I think there is. All it does is prolong the inevitable. It’s a good tool to ween off, but they won’t make any money that way.

I’ve been weening myself off, he still gives me 16mg a day. I have a backstock of maybe thousands of strips. It’s insane.

Voltaren stinks but it works well on joints. It's expensive around $20 for 4oz

edibles do any good?

I feel like Voltwitter tries to start **** on our own team more than any other fan base lol. He was at the game, cutting it up with the other QBs. Doubt he decided to transfer between the end of the game and when this picture was taken.

Also why does Nico look like a drawing lol

Yeah, I believe king nico or another handle. Said coaches were surprised by how bad he was once he got on campus.

That is what I started doing since I quit doing physical work in the early 2010s....week long scripts when I absolutely need them to have any quality of life.

The last time I was in full on hard-core pain management was in feb-sept 07. I hurt my lower back really badly while still working in building and flooring contracting, and had to go to physical therapy for 5-6 months. I was on two 30 mg time release morphines, and 4 1/2 percocet 10s along with gabapentin and muscle relaxers every day. I told the Doc in July that I felt like I could start weaning off, so he gave me a schedule to reduce weekly. I made my last month of scripts last 9 weeks....that really helped with the withdrawals.

I knew it was going to suck, but I literally wanted to die in Feb until I got on that pain relief regimen...it got me through the worst stretch and helped me get through the therapy.

I am more afraid of feeling that level of pain again than I am ANY medication. I'd rather be chemically dependent than want to die because the excruciating pain NEVER stops.


The day I took my first time release Morphines and Percs I wanted to finally get out of the house and do something fun again, so we went to Honeymoon Island State Park, and I actually got down on my knees in the middle of Honeymoon Island Beach and thanked God that the pain was gone and I could walk and move around again.

I'm not sure if I missed it or not but has your doctor tried you on Biologics. They have some harsh side effects but for many they work. I had and or have Osteoarthritis and had both knees replaced because of it and my wife has Psoriatic Arthritis. I take Diclofanac but perfer Zorvolex supposedly easier on you but the insurance wants to argue about that one. There are medicines that help, if you don't have a Rheumatologist that would be a good start. There are things that work and I hope you find the right one my friend.

 

[VolNash17]

I mean he was a starter on his team last year which is new

Good, just was wondering. Don’t really need the projects if they can’t beat out who Tennessee has put out there the last two seasons. Hopefully it’s a great pickup

Looks like a Ferrari and runs like a Yugo.

I’m trying to kick my coffee addiction this year (I know I m ow, why would I do that?). It’s going poorly. Trying a shroom substitute coffee. Not the psychedelic two marijuana ones. Lions mane, reishi, etc. There’s a lot out there on the market.

I put Lions Mane drops in my coffee!

 

[butchna]

Anyone else think Tayven ends up at USF?

Would make way too much sense. Couldn’t hate on it.

 

[Jackcrevol]

I put Lions Mane drops in my coffee!

see any cool stuff?

 

[BigSteve09]

Damn man

My heart goes out to y'all sharing your pain stories.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

You guys and gals that believe...I would greatly appreciate your prayers, I am in extreme pain, and have been for the last several days. I can't take pain killers because of my job and nothing else is touching it. This has been the worst stretch I have had in a while. I live in chronic pain, and I usually just grit my teeth and go on, but this is one of those times I just can't...it's starting to get to me.

Thanks in advance.

Prayers my friend
I hope this passes quickly.

Getting older is not for the weak.

I wonder if Kratom is just as hard to stop taking?

That, idk? I've never personally used it. I can dig in and find out some more for ya if you would like me to?

If Sean McVay gets let go or they just part ways with the Rams, the Titans would do well to talk with him about the OC job and start over. He will be a hot commodity for several HC jobs I would imagine. Once you're a HC and win in the NFL you tend to just get recycled.

 

[scienceteaching_vol]

Which one are you?

Kamara. The one up ten points.

 

[Maxwell865]

Down to 1mg a day. Was at 16. It’s a process for sure. Painful one at that.

You should try vivitrol. Saved my life. You have to be off subs for 10-14 days but I can promise you it’s worth it in the long run.

 

[peaygolf]

Baker Mayfield isn’t an upgrade over Tannehill. I can’t believe people still think he’s a good NFL QB.

Didn’t say he was “good” but he’s better than what Tennessee has trotted on the field this year. He’d be a decent stop gap for a year

He wouldn’t be getting fired. It would be a small break…Sean Payton situation. Next employer would be forking over draft picks.

 

[GVol1966]

Vols need a running back like that.

Who doesn’t?

 

[GVol1966]

Cooper is doing pretty well in it and he’s prob under 300

Speaking of Cooper, who is our backup center?
