Suggest An Alternative To Valium For Pain In Pelvis

default
Posted on Mon, 19 May 2014
Question: Hi there,

Visiting XXXXXXX area on vaction. Brought my meds with me with include Palexia (tapentadol), Difene (nsaid) and Valium. To cut a long story short the heart is helping the metal in my pelvis. I had a complete pelvic reconstruction 4 yrs. The Dr did advise me that even after the reconstructed surgery I would still have considerable pain for the rest of my life but thankfully in general
My health has improved considerably.

The problem I now have is that I have run out of Valium as I have being using it instead of using my narcotic pankillers. I found with the heat my joint are feeling a good deal better. Using the diazapem along with the difene I feel I am able to function reasonably well . I am steering clear of the Palexia at the moment as its like using an elephant to crack a nut. I Appreciate in XXXXXXX with our country being much damper and cooler which leaves me
Neeeding my stronger meds much more frequently.

Is there any way I could order diazapem , maybe 40 tabs to help me through my vacation. Myself and my husband are travelling with small kids and would prefer not to bring my discomfort to their attention.

Thank you for your time to read this.

With thanks
XXXX

Prescription is not allowed on this forum

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I admire the way you had written the query but we do not prescribe drugs with addiction potential on this forum.

Since you cannot buy them without a script I suggest you to go ahead with Palexia and delay its withdrawal till you go back to your country. If you do not want to do that you can rely on the available over the counters like ADVIL / MOTRIN double strength. Difene may not work now.

Let me know if there is anything else.
