turtlespeed 212 #2 May 10, 2004 Click - CLick - Over in seconds. But that's just one option. There are many. I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skybytch 259 #3 May 10, 2004 I feel your pain... been there. It sucks. Take the meds and sleep. When you wake up, take more meds and sleep some more. Don't get up if you don't have to. Have you tried ice and/or heat on it? It'll get better. Try not to kill anything in the meantime. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DickMcMahon 0 #4 May 11, 2004 JC: How'd it happen? I went through something similar on my 13th jump. The story is told on my website if you want to check it out. My hamstring was torn and sciatic nerve damaged. There were lots of sleepless nights and shooting pains. Over a year passed before I jumped again. There's still no feeling on one side of my right foot, and it's not easy to run. This probably doesn't help you feel any better ... but I wish it did. Be assured there's someone who knows what you're going through! I thought I'd died in that jump and went directly to Hell. Hang in there man, it's gonna get better. Just give it time.

I work in skydiving for the summer and I dont need this bollox now.It is a pain I have never felt before... like severe cramp down the right leg with fire as well.I can hardly walk and feel like just cutting the leg off!!! Thanks guys.... I`ll let you know when it gets better Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chuckbrown 0 #7 May 11, 2004 My last bout took about 4-6 weeks to fully heal. I wanted to die every time I moved. God did it suck. A buddy gave a presciption patch that helped alot. Some sort of "caine." Ask your doctor about it. My buddy had it prescribed after back surgery and had some spares. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
