ah buddy... i'm sorry to hear that. since you've been through it before, how long does this part normally last for you - a couple days?

were you able to get any sleep?

ah buddy... that sucks.  i DO understand that part - it's a catch 22, really.

i'll be honest (you mighta read it on here anyway) last week after 21 days of nothing, i went back to 3 a day, until I can get an epidural.  i was in tears for a week and had to choose the lesser of two evils, for me..  all i can say is i don't like the feeling anymore.  they make me weird and sick and scared to be on them, even taking just a few.  so - there's the flipside... it's helping my pain (thank God) but the other part makes it almost not worth it at all... especially after finally feeling like a million bucks (being off the sh**.)

so i do get it.  what kind of surgery did you have, and is there ANYTHING else you can do for the pain?

also - didn't you mention at some point that you were getting something today for the anxiety/sleep?  that should really help...

ah buddy...

I wish you the best.The scariest part for me is relapse.the cool thing now for me is no cravings.just sick:[ and pain in my knee from surgery.It is sure nice to have friends with me as my wife and family don't get it.except for my step daughter whom i won't talk to right now.as she stole 4000.00 bucks out of my account recently.no wonder i want to be numb.

Got an hour sleep.It usually lasts about 4 to6 days for the worst it to be over with.Problem is i still have a lot of pain from surgery.

marcatj · Answer

ouch!  that's rough...

well, i'm glad to hear no cravings - that part is GREAT.  and i gotta tell ya roof, i applaud the fact you're doing this in light of all the trauma - and drama.  that's aot - good for you... speaks volumes.

and I thank God for this place too, and you guys... no one gets it.  no one, but you guys.

feel good, buddy....

I thought you had family support. I'm sorry to hear that you're going through this along, but I have come off the fentanyl patches with no support team. When the dr.asked me if I had a support team, I said no, I have a stress team. lol  I know you're hurting and just get on and let go whenever you want. (I can't believe I said that to you.) LOL
