Somehow I missed this email until today. Â Yes, my friend agrees with you “comfort is a relative term now”. Â Repositioning seems to be the key – thanks so much for taking the time to share your thoughts.
Thanks Duane for the suggestion & link. Â (My friend does not have the ability to stand now so he transfers into his bed to relieve the pain.) Â I too mentioned to him that perhaps it is the inflatable cushion for the wheelchair that needs replacement. Â He is also waiting to hear back from his doctor at the ALS clinic about trying pain medication patches. Â Thanks for your input – much appreciated.
Thanks Nicole for sharing your experience & treatment. Â This is another example of how helpful it is to have these forums! I have passed the info you shared along – much appreciated.
