Day 56 off oxy. Still have anxiety and can't sleep
I've been told that sleep is the last thing to come back, right?
I have to admit, when my dr screwed up an important lab test this morning, I totally felt like taking 2 oxys cause i was so mad. But I didn't . ( so proud!). My husband has them hidden well. So, I've realized that I'm never out of the woods.
I did cancel pain clinic appt for tomorrow.
I didn't flush them because of my cancer. There will be a day that I truly need them. However, I've also realized I was using the cancer as an excuse. Like many others, my bone pain is usually manageable .
I have been going to NA only because of learning so much on this support group!

Hey there!
Just wanted to drop by and say that I am proud of you for resisting that urge!!
Hang tight! Your doing great! Congrats on canceling that appointment!! I too, canceled my pain Dr appointment when I was detoxing. It really was a sense of relief!
I am so glad to hear that your going to the NA meetings as well.
I never thought I needed NA either until I realized just how much I really needed it.... And it was this group " our beloved IBK " to be honest, that pushed me to get my butt up and go... I am so glad I did!
Stay with us, post and update us please!

I'm probably the last person you expected to post on your thread.....or maybe even wanted to hear from......but I am SO PROUD OF YOU!!!!!!!
I used multiple (yes, all at the same time) nervine botanicals for sleep. I read about them in an article that "used to be" in our no longer available Health Pages. The suggestions were made by a ND (Naturopathic Dr) I used passion flower, lemon balm, valerian root AND melatonin. The "times" that I slept were WAY off (sleep patterns)...but when I slept...I slept good!
You're almost to the 60 day mark for the first time in YEARS....and I am singing praises to you, girl~
