 Geez, I'm so sorry...do you have anything to take? Keep your leg warm & I wear my stump shrinker...sometimes that works. Hot baths also helps me....or I guess you could take some liquid nourishment...  cover up & go to bed. That might also help.

I don't have any prescriptions for it... They usually come when I let myself get overtired. On Friday evening I was up until 3:00AM on Saturday. So - that translated into phantom jolts on Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Sometimes when I take a Motrin they subside for a while. During this last bout it didn't help at all, however. The worst part was there's not much I can do when I have to come in and sit at a desk pushing paper all day. The worst part is when I get into a meeting I am conducting and try to let on like nothing is up. Today, so far anyway... Phantom pain free! I'm knocking on it:  |
