Dear Ensoul,
Electrical shock, huh? You and Joe_Z should hook up and discuss. Electricity
injuries seem to be weird things in that they are continually changing. When
you work around high voltage (though it is true it's the amps, or milliamps
that'll kill you) they try and tell you it's close to being shot in that you
have an entry wound and an exit wound. That is true, I've seen it. But it's
also like taking the most complexly wired system you can think of and
dumping way too much current through it. Some fuses and breakers will pop.
Some wiring will get burned through all the way, some only a little, some is
still intact but charred badly enough that current can't get through.
Sometimes it does get through, but only intermittently. So that can keep a
light bulb from lighting up. Sometimes. Even with the right tools to measure
the current flow, you will only see something irregular when the circuit
malfunctions and that light doesn't light.
Your body is like that. All the nerves are wires, running here, running
there, crossing, meeting, supplying power here, taking power there. Most of
them are bundled in some fashion or form, running through the spinal canal
with all it's complex interweaving and tiny clearances and eventually
connect to the brain.
Any place along the route and at either end you can have damage that results
in pain and you can only see what it's doing, when it's doing it. You
probably have to be awake and aware, and its going to hurt like hell for
them to touch you, but you have to be seen while that light wont go on, or
all they will ever be able to do is try and bury it in fentanyl lollipops.
Hit the ER, Hon--og

I'm on 150 mcg fentyl patch also diluadid for break through pain...the
dildid doesn't help my leg pain! my Dr wants me to go to the ER when
that happens....the ER doesn't like to treat pain without a cause
there's no ryhme or reason to the pain...If I'm on my feet most of the
day it bad but I'm laid with the flu and have been exhausted and off
my feet mostly...still leg pain
stay off my feet and not use hands...I have bilateral carpla
tunnel...had the surgery on 1 hand and it didn't work, mine was caused
by severve electrical shock and that's getting worse too plus I have
other causes of pain
