Yesterday was a particularly painful day for me. I was working on a big project at work that required focus so I didn't take any meds. When I arrived home in tears, unable to cope any longer with the pain, my husband handed me a beer. I am by no means encouraging mixing alcohol with meds or over drinking. My mother (also a TN sufferer) and I have just found that a beer always takes the edge off of our pain.
So, I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed the same? A glass of wine, a cocktail, or even a shot of hard liquor never work for us like a beer does.
Oh I WISH that worked for me. I usually end up in pain, and then unable to take my rescue drugs for fear of mixing them with the alcohol! Lucky you icequeen ;)!!
