I feel for you. Just had a killer one about 3 weeks ago. Most of mine I don't know about until I see them. The ones that hurt... I had them pass in 3 or 4 hours. Or 3 or 4 days! Not very encouraging, I know. But like I said earlier, for me, a HOT bath is very soothing. Helps the narcotics work. I've slept in the tub many times, cause that's the only place I could.
May sound strange, but sometimes I've skipped the prescription stuff and gone with 3 or 4 ibuprofen and a Tylenol PM and actually gotten more relief.
You'll be surprised when it passes, that the pain ends immediately (like pulling a sliver), and that LACK of pain is an actual feeling.
Good luck and hang in.
