like i need more pain!

went to check with the dr about the rib injury's horrible pain....
she says i did not injure the rib but pulled all the cartilage that holds the ribs together and it is very inflamed.... there's a fancy name for it, but the bottom line is big time pain!
she told me to take the rest of the week off from all activity and gave me double doses of pain meds.....
so far - 2 hours later they aren't helping.....
she also said my whole body is traumatized fro the ongoing cycle of pain from the shoulder, the polymyalgia, the side effects of cancer drug etc....and that it may take some serious muscle relaxers to get ahead of the cycle and break it..... so far don't have to do that if these pain meds help.....
i should be pretty loopy for the rest of the week......
i am OH SO TIRED OF PAIN.........that won't let up......
