Not sure of title...injured...taking hydros right now

Hi everyone... Just wanted to share what is going on with me... last Friday I was lifting The Tank (my 20month 40lb toddler) and I heard a loud POP/SNAP noise.....anyway long story short I basically tore the muscles & tendons under my shoulder blade that have something or another to do with my rotator cuff. I was rx'd hydrocodone (my doc) for the injury and flexiril. My husband has them and is in charge of giving them to me as needed....unfortunately they are needed right now. I have not ever had pain like this... I can't stay home alone with Tank right now b/c he is to active for me to care for at this point.... his great aunt is picking him up when he wakes up. We love her...couldn't live w/o her!

My point is....I just wanted everyone to know what is going on.....and if you are so inclined to keep me in your prayers for a speedy recovery! I haven't been answering posts...been answering some PM's... typing is not that hard...mousing is easier so I am here reading....if anyone wants to send me entertaining stories!! LOL

Thanks for listening!
JoAnn

Hang in there...you're doing the right thing by having your hubby hold the meds. You're also talking about it and that is huge....we are all here for you!
