Woke up to my scrotum hurting, just laying in bed, great. I can't tell you how much it sucks to wake up and the first thought you have in your head is "my scrotum hurts". Well, I didn't think the world scrotum, but trying to keep this friendly :)

My wife is so awesome though. I told her I was in a ton of pain today and her first thing was "How can I help?"

So I had her put lidocaine ointment on the areas that hurt the most, and then took an oxy. Now I'm sitting here in pain counting the minutes before the sweep euphoria of pain meds kick in and I can function for a few hours before I have to take a nap.

The lidocaine takes the pain level from like a 8-10 down to a 6-8. Then the oxy does the rest. At least my doctor gives me these drugs to take as needed. I worry some times I'm abusing them, but he gave me 60 oxys on 02/11 and I still have 48 left. So I think I'm doing ok. I only take them when I'm on the verge of screaming/tears.

Sucks too, last 2 days have been good pain days. You start getting use to feeling better, then you wake up having a bad day.

This disease sucks lol
