How I got addicted to paínkíllers/opiōids battling lupus & other ċhronic íllnesses - Trish Barasa

#SharedMomentswithJustus
For over 30 years, Trish has known nothing other than pain. The more paíkíllers she used, the more she needed, for the same effect. And that is how she got hooked/addicted to opiōids. But how did she find herself here? She shares all that and more on this week's episode. Beyond the pain, Trish is an accomplished career woman, a wife and mother of two, taking one step at time.

A very strong woman. there is a doctor who once taught us to cross the lower part of the legs and not the way Trish is sitting. They said if you cross legs at the knees bones get dislocated

[@murugyy]

I have related so much with this story.Sending you hugs Trish. I live with mixed connective tissue disease and sacroilitis causing severe backaches and under heavy opiods:Oxycodone and Fentanyl. One thing I have come to realise having lived with this disease for 8years,I needed to be disciplined with the drugs.Taking only when necessary,not adding without my doctor adjusting. Trish take it a symptom at a time.Lupus and coccyx pain is hard.Pain is lonely,but know God is right next to you.Don't loose hope,keep fighting

[@trishbarasa3310]

So sorry about the illness and certainly have learnt from you in this comment.

[@SharedMomentswithJustus]

You are a strong woman 🎉

[@trishbarasa3310]

Thank you Justus

"I'm a true testimony of how resilient human spirit is." Thank you for sharing your story and inspiring the world.came from tiktok to watch this testimony.

[@trishbarasa3310]

Thank you for the encouragement

[@mwambugu7254]

Trish, thank you so much for sharing your story. May the Lord walk the journey with you.

[@KandidXpressions]

Wow, what a journey Trish! You look good & I hope you feel good too. You mentioned "nerve block" and although it might give you long term relief, it's quite a tricky procedure. I was discouraged from taking it 15 years ago. Id suggest you do some research & speak with your doctor about the pros & cons. I wish you healing & joy. 🤗

[@nurugizani3075]

Would this as well apply to fibromyalgia as its also has nerve pain?

[@trishbarasa3310]

For the good times, I feel tops! I'll be researching more for sure, thank you for the pointers.

[@phylliskagimah2510]

Hugs mum, God has sustained you through this for his purpose. Please focus on the posotive side

[@africanawang2674]

I have learnt Soo much and I feel enlightened. Thanks Trish. My take home is that whatever curve ball we are dealing with, don't relent in your faith, ramain strong, head above water. Grace and power to you. You look soo good despite it all. God is with you. ❤❤

[@trishbarasa3310]

I am encouraged. God bless you.

[@eassynjoki3826]

Thank you for tagging butterfly of Hope..... I totally relate with Trish kwanza when she was describing pain... Having pain when you try to tell people and they dont relate, have buried mind in the back of my mind and living each day at a time and just being ready for anything including death itself.

[@trishbarasa3310]
