Hey all - well, I'm off to the hospital tomorrow for pre-op, then have the baby - FINALLY!
I just want to thank EVERYONE for their prayers and words since I have been on this forum. It REALLY helped me during this time.
I'm having a C-section - so I know I will get pain meds - but I'm not worried about how I will handle them. It is rather liberating to feel like that. I would never have felt that way before this forum. Also, the doc and my hubby are in the loop -so I know that will help too - but the biggest factor I believe - is the mental one that has made me fight those pills.
I know I'm not done with them - as I still have to find out how bad I injured myself when I bumped my head - and then fell - which means more surgery. But I'm not naive to how bad I felt when I was tapering - and to how much harder it will be if I just keep taking.
Good luck to all - I will catch up when I can - and know that my prayers are with each and everyone fighting this addiction. Thank you Gip, Girlybuff, Scarlet, Amy, VicA, wolfke, Samhan, orange,and ALL the others whose stories have inspired and truly helped me.
Take care -me
